Does daylight saving change WIB to MSK?
Western Indonesia Time does not move its clocks at all, so its UTC+7 offset holds every day of the year.
Moscow Time does not move its clocks at all, so its UTC+3 offset holds every day of the year.
Is WIB ahead of or behind MSK?
WIB is ahead of MSK by 4 hours: when it is 12:00 pm in Jakarta, it is 8:00 am in Moscow. Neither Western Indonesia Time nor Moscow Time observes daylight saving, so the abbreviations never change and the gap between them is fixed.
Western Indonesia Time covers Jakarta, Bandung and Medan, the most populous of the three Indonesian zones. Moscow Time covers Moscow and western Russia, fixed since 2014. The identifiers behind them are Asia/Jakarta and Europe/Moscow, which is what any calendar or scheduling system should be storing rather than a fixed number of hours.
