CST vs HKT
CST (Central Standard Time) runs at UTC−6 and HKT (Hong Kong Time) at UTC+8. HKT is normally 14 hours ahead of CST.
CST is the standard time (UTC−6); when daylight saving is in effect it becomes CDT (UTC−5). The live clock on this page always shows the current offset. HKT stays at UTC+8 all year round — it does not observe daylight saving time.
CST can also refer to China Standard Time (UTC+8); this page covers North American Central Time.
