Incorrect Timezone Offset for 'Asia/Almaty' #1101

Closed tolegenovbt closed 6 months ago

tolegenovbt commented 6 months ago

Description:

Currently, the timezone 'Asia/Almaty' is returning date and time in UTC+6:00, whereas the entire Kazakhstan is now on UTC+5:00. This inconsistency is causing confusion and inaccurate time representations for users relying on this timezone information.

Expected Behavior:

The 'Asia/Almaty' timezone should reflect the correct UTC+5:00 offset for all regions within Kazakhstan.

Steps to Reproduce:

Retrieve current time using 'Asia/Almaty' timezone. Compare it with the local time in Kazakhstan. Notice the one-hour discrepancy. Additional Information:

This issue impacts various applications and services that rely on accurate timezone information, including scheduling, calendar events, and timestamp conversions. Updating the timezone offset for 'Asia/Almaty' to UTC+5:00 will ensure consistency and accuracy in time representations for users in Kazakhstan.

Proposed Solution:

Update the timezone configuration for 'Asia/Almaty' to reflect the correct UTC+5:00 offset for all regions within Kazakhstan. This adjustment will align with the recent changes in Kazakhstan's timezone regulations and provide users with accurate time information.
