Filipino Time

Filipino Time, which means things get done whenever they get done. Official Timing of The Phillipines.

I set up a party for 6:00. This is interpretted as 7:00 filipino time.

In some cases, filipino hosts deliberately set the time an hour or so earlier, knowing that the guests will arrive an hour or so late. In this case, the poor americans are surprised to see that they're the first ones to arrive and the only ones there for the first hour or so.
