Does daylight saving change MSK to WIB?
Moscow Time does not move its clocks at all, so its UTC+3 offset holds every day of the year.
Western Indonesia Time does not move its clocks at all, so its UTC+7 offset holds every day of the year.
Is MSK ahead of or behind WIB?
MSK is behind WIB by 4 hours: when it is 12:00 pm in Moscow, it is 4:00 pm in Jakarta. Neither Moscow Time nor Western Indonesia Time observes daylight saving, so the abbreviations never change and the gap between them is fixed.
Moscow Time covers Moscow and western Russia, fixed since 2014. Western Indonesia Time covers Jakarta, Bandung and Medan, the most populous of the three Indonesian zones. The identifiers behind them are Europe/Moscow and Asia/Jakarta, which is what any calendar or scheduling system should be storing rather than a fixed number of hours.
