It does make much sense to attach much meaning to clock time as early or late from other cultures. If everyone gets up and goes to bed earlier, 6 am no longer feels early. There's no physically special about a clock time. divisionbyzero0's comments on what he thinks are convenient sunrise/sunset times elsewhere are also silly; we don't have the same work and school schedule as Indonesia, he's not going to have the same lifestyle here as there.

If everyone typically goes to sleep 9-10, 5 am won't feel early. Think that's common in many tropical countries not just Indonesia.

Ok then, Cfa climates with cold winters, as opposed to Cfa climates that deserve to be called humid subtropical like Brisbane.
