Malaysia observes Malaysia Time (GMT+8) all year and does not use daylight saving time. Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles are usually on Pacific Time, which is typically GMT-8 in winter and GMT-7 in summer when daylight saving time is in effect, usually from March to early November. New York follows Eastern Time, usually GMT-5 in winter and GMT-4 in summer, so the time difference between Malaysia and these US cities can vary by one hour depending on the season; always check closer to your travel dates for the exact current time difference.
