The official website is currently down, however this url still accessible from google cache:
http://209.85.173.132/search?q=cache:JBpW5TryxxAJ:www.bmg.go.id/dataDetail.bmg%3FJenis%3DTeks%26IDS%3D7452470612766189439%26IDD%3D5015031020779933765+waktu+indonesia+bagian+barat+site:*.go.id&cd=5&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=id&client=firefox-a

but the real url is:
http://www.bmg.go.id/dataDetail.bmg?Jenis=Teks&IDS=7452470612766189439&IDD=5015031020779933765

The document states that GMT +7 (jakarta time) is Waktu Indonesia Barat (WIB), GMT +8 is Waktu Indonesia Tengah (WITA), and GMT +9 is Waktu Indonesia Timur (WIT) Thank you for your attention.

Perhaps that's wrong as well? Do you have a reference (URL) to an
official document stating Jakarta's time zone?

Would you mind sending that to tz at elsie.nci.nih.gov as well (CC'ing
365215 at bugs.launchpad.net) to discuss this upstream? Thank you!
