** スペイン領時代

;; [66] 古くから[[原住民]]がいましたし、[[支那]]や[[東南アジア]]各地とある程度の交易関係があったようです。

[18] [[tzdata]] は -15 (>>8) を最初としていますが、
元々[[アジア日付]] (+8 [[地方時]]) だったのがスペイン領となって[[アメリカ日付]] 
(-15) に改まったと処理するのが妥当にも思えます。

;; [17] 1521年に[[スペイン]]が侵攻を開始し、やがて[[植民地]]となりました。
[[中米]]や[[太平洋諸島]]と一体の[[領土]]として管理していました。

[8] [[tzdata]] の [CODE[Asia/Manila]] は、
元の[[地方時]]を [TZ[-15:56:00]] としています [SRC[>>7]]。

[10] [[スペイン領フィリピン]]の[RUBYB[[[総督]]]@en[governor-general]]の
[[Narciso Claveria y Zaldua]] ([[ナルシソ・クラベリア]]、
在任期間 [TIME[1844]]-[TIME[1849]]) の[TIME[1844年8月16日][1844-08-16]]の[[布告]]により、
[TIME[1844年12月30日][1844-12-30]]の翌日が[TIME[1845年1月1日][1845-01-01]]とされました
[SRC[>>7]]。これにより[[日付変更線]]は[[フィリピン]]の[[東]]側に移動しました。

[9] [[tzdata]] の [CODE[Asia/Manila]] は、
[TIME[1844年12月31日][1844-12-31]]を境に[[地方時]] [TZ[+08:04:00]]
となったとしています [SRC[>>7]]。

** 米領時代

;; [19] [[米西戦争]]の結果、[TIME[1898年12月10日][1898-12-10]]調印の[[パリ条約]]により[[フィリピン]]と[[グアム]]は[[アメリカ合衆国]]領となりました。
[[パリ条約]]は[TIME[1899年4月11日][1899-04-11]]に発効しました。
([[グアムの標準時]]も参照。)

[90] [TIME[1899年2月][1899-02]]にまとめられた表は、当時の港湾報時情報に基づき、
Manila [[平均時]] [TZ[+08:03:52]] を [[Manila]] の時刻として示しています [SRC[>>89]]。

[94] [TIME[1966年][year:1966]]の[[米国]]の書籍は、
[TIME[1899年5月11日][1899-05-11]]に[[標準時]]が [TZ[+08:00]] 
となった (それ以前は[[LMT]]) としています [SRC[>>93]]。
[[tzdata]] の [CODE[Asia/Manila]] も、 
[TIME[1899年5月11日][1899-05-11]]を境に [TZ[+08:00]]
となったとしています [SRC[>>7]]。


[11] [TIME[1899年9月29日][1899-09-29]]掲載の[[英国水路部]][[告示]]によると、[[比律賓]]諸嶋の[[標準時]]が [TZ[+08:00]] となり、
[[馬尼剌]]の[[報時球]] ([LAT[14.36.0N]] [LON[120.58.0E]])
も[[標準時]]12:00:00 = [[綠威平時]]16:00:00 = [[平時]] 0:03:52 
[WEAK[(>>83 は112秒とするが明らかに誤り)]]
に変更されました [SRC[>>37, >>83]]。

;; [28] [[米国]]本国では[TIME[1883年][1883]]に[[鉄道標準時]]が定められ、
[TIME[1918年][1918]]に[[標準時]]と[[夏時間]]が法制化されています。
[[中国]] ([[清]]) は[TIME[1902年][1902]]に[[海岸時]]を定めています。
[[仏印]]は[TIME[1906年]]に[[標準時]]を定めています。
これらの時期と比較すると、非常に早い時期です。

;; [20] [[米西戦争]]と並行して現地人は独立を画策していましたが、
[TIME[1902年][1902]]までに[[米国]]により鎮圧され ([[米比戦争]])、
引き続き[[植民地]]とされました。

[75] 雑誌記事の1905年末の情報で、[[比律賓]]は [TZ[+08:00]] とされています [SRC[>>74]]。

> MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Starting at 2 o’clock a.m. Sunday (Monday, Philippine time), Americans, except those in Arizona and Hawaii,  will set their clocks forward by one hour as part of Daylight Saving Time (DST).  In the Philippines, Filipinos will advance their clocks by two hours.
> For the first time in the history of the Philippines, this tropical country in Asia is implementing DST, but unlike its U.S. counterpart, it is a two-hour adjustment.

> However, Philippine DST has nothing to do with energy-saving.  It is a national scheme to encourage and ensure that Filipinos arrive at their appointments, school or work ON TIME — in fact two hours early.
> You see, the Philippines is known for “Filipino time,” a standard in which people arriving late for appointments is expected, much less tolerated.  Even their country’s flag carrier, Philippine Air Lines, or PAL, is often referred to as “Plane Always Late.”
> With the new Philippine DST, many employers will be very pleased that at last, their workers will arrive on time — assuming the LRT and MRT (light railway) trains run on schedule.
> “By the time DST is set back to regular or standard time in the fall, Filipinos will already have been used to being on time or early,” President NoyNoy Aquino told reporters today.

> The Time Service Division was established as one of the major units in the then Weather Bureau sometime in 1949. Its master clock was a U. Nardin Marine Chronometer, with pendulum regulator, which was utilized as a dispatch clock. A short synchrome ensemble replaced the marine chronometer in 1951 and a quartz crystal clock improved the system in 1965.
> Since then, there was no major improvement that had been done with the system, except for the acquisition of a Digitizing Oscilloscope.  In 1988, the Time Service Division was downgraded to the Time Service Unit (TSU), together with the reorganization of the PAGASA.  In 1996, the TSU acquired a Luminous Digital Clock and a Global Positioning System (GPS), which were installed in 1997, as its primary reference timing system.
> In 2003, TSU was transferred to the newly renovated Transit Building of the PAGASA Astronomical Observatory, equipped with the new timing equipment, known as the Rubidium/Global Positioning System Common View (Rb/GPSCV) Time Transfer System.  The detailed characteristics, components and utilization of the Rb/GPSCV are given in a succeeding section.

> To sync all time pieces in the country’s more than 7,100 islands, the Department of Science and Technology with several partners will unveil at 7:00 PM tonight a clock prototype that displays the Philippine Standard Time. Dubbed “Juan Time”, DOST’s campaign aims to promote the nationwide use of the PST (hence “Juan Time”, a word play on “One Time” and “Juan” being the common name for Filipinos) and sync timepieces with the PST.
> “Time is a resource that is very important but often overlooked,” said DOST Secretary Mario G. Montejo. “Other than its social and economic value, time is something that can unite us as Filipinos.”
> “Juan Time reminds Filipinos that keeping to the PST avoids the difficulties of having confusing, unsynchronized time,” Montejo added.
> Established decades ago, the PST is set by DOST’s Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), the country’s official timekeeper since 1978 as mandated by Section 6 of Batas Pambansa Blg. 8.
> The PST is set via DOST-PAGASA’s timing system that consists of rubidium atomic clock, Global Positioning System receiver, time interval counter, distribution amplifier, and a computer. The system automatically calculates its time difference with every satellite within its antenna’s field of view. The PST is available online at the DOST-PAGASA website (http://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph).
