Time zones (again) -

I have searched the archives, and find several questions on the subject of local time vs GMT/UTC. None address my particular requirement – I need to know the local time at any one of several different locations. For example, when the app is queried on a PC in London, what is the local time in Hong Kong, or what is the local time in Mumbai? I assume there must be some way to call the GetTimeZoneInformation API for a time zone other than the one the PC is set to.

Any ideas?
