Thailand’s clock will be set one second slower on July 1

/ 07:04 PM June 15, 2015

The Navy’s Hydrographic Department announced that Thailand’s clock will be reset at 7:00:01 am on July 1 to be 7:00:00 am or slowing the clock down by one second.

The department reasoned that a French agency in charge of observing the earth orbit had found that the orbit had slowed down so the clock will have to be reset.
