There is a standard called UST which every country can reference which will be the same no matter where one is in the world.
It simply isn't very convenient. Most societies have adopted a convention and cultural references that are more amenable to local time standards. (for example things like "9 to 5". etc)
As there is no requirement or law forcing countries or peoples to adopt UST, the choice is really theirs. It might suck that you don't like it but people don't really have to make things easy for you.

UTC. Maybe GMT. UST isnt a standardized use, and means a bunch of different things. Ulanbaatar standard time seems to be a common one.
