North Korea is to switch to a new time zone to mark its liberation from the Japanese at the end of World War Two, says state media.

朝鮮官方媒體宣布，朝鮮將調(diào)整所在時(shí)區(qū),，以紀(jì)念二戰(zhàn)末從日本統(tǒng)治下獲得解放,。

North Korea is currently in the same time zone as South Korea and Japan, which are nine hours ahead of GMT.

目前朝鮮和日韓兩國(guó)同處東九區(qū)。

But Pyongyang Time will see the clocks put back by 30 minutes on 15 August.

8月15日,，平壤時(shí)間將向后調(diào)整30分鐘,。

State news agency KCNA said "wicked Japanese imperialists" had "deprived Korea of even its standard time" by changing the clocks during occupation.

朝鮮官方新聞機(jī)構(gòu)朝中社稱“邪惡的日本帝國(guó)主義者”通過(guò)在占領(lǐng)期間更改時(shí)間“剝奪了韓國(guó)自己的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)時(shí)間”。

The entire Korean peninsula was 8.5 hours ahead of GMT until Japan colonised it in 1910.

整個(gè)朝鮮半島在1910年被日本殖民統(tǒng)治前都比標(biāo)準(zhǔn)時(shí)間快8.5小時(shí),。

KCNA quoted officials as saying the decision to adopt Pyongyang Time reflected "the unshakeable faith and will of people on the 70th anniversary of Korea's liberation".

朝中社援引**關(guān)于使用平壤時(shí)間的講話稱,，這表明了“朝鮮解放70周年紀(jì)念之際人民不可動(dòng)搖的決心和意志”。

South Korea said the move could cause some short-term inconvenience at the Kaesong industrial plant in North Korea, jointly run by the two Koreas.

韓國(guó)認(rèn)為這一舉措將在開(kāi)城工業(yè)園造成短暫的不便,。該工業(yè)園位于朝鮮,，由朝韓兩國(guó)共同運(yùn)營(yíng)。

"And in the longer term, there may be some fallout for efforts to unify standards and reduce differences between the two sides," Unification Ministry official said.

韓國(guó)統(tǒng)一部官員稱,，“長(zhǎng)期來(lái)看,，這將對(duì)統(tǒng)一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)、減少雙方差異的努力造成影響,�,！�

There is no international body that approves a country's change of time zone as countries decide for themselves.

更改時(shí)區(qū)并不由國(guó)際機(jī)構(gòu)批準(zhǔn)，各國(guó)可以自行決定,。（滬江英語(yǔ)網(wǎng)）
