"At the request of the MEC, the government postpones daylight saving time
for November 18"

"The hammer was struck yesterday by President Michel Temer in a meeting
with the Minister of Mines and Energy, Moreira Franco. The presidential
decree with daylight saving time will be published in the Official Gazette
of the Union in the coming days."
