There are not - it is that the difference is smaller. And that is because the country is nearer the equator.
During the Autumn equinox the length of the day and night are nearly equal. The length of the day on the equinox is approximately twelve hours.

Day and night hours.
A solstice is when day and night have an equal time, 12 hours in the day, and 12 hours at night. There is also a chance for a solar eclipse during solstices.
There are 24 hours in a day/night. Therefore 1 1/4th is equal to 1 day and 6 hours or 24 + 6 = 30 hours.
There are 24 hours IN a day. If you're asking how many hours there are DURING DAY TIME, it depends on where one lives. Countries like Singapore and Malaysia experience 12 hours during the day and 12 hours during the night. This depends on its location geographically.
"Solstice" refers to a day that has the maximum difference between day and night - either the longest day or the shortest day. The opposite would be the "equinox", which is when the day hours equal the night hours.
A day is 12 hoursA night is 12 hours
In 2012, the day when spring and fall had roughly equal hours of daylight and darkness was the equinox on September 22nd. On this day, the lengths of day and night are approximately equal all around the world.
In the Spring and Fall equinox, night and day have the same number of hours. Equi = equal.
The duration of day and night is equal at the equator twice a year during the equinoxes in March and September. This phenomenon occurs because the Sun is directly above the equator, resulting in 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness.
