Today the Chilean Ministry of Energy announced that they will go back to a DST scheme this year.
That means clocks will go back 1 hour at 0:00 May 15th (jumping back to May 14th); and will go forward by 1 hour on 0:00, August 14th.
This was decided after a public outcry during winter, when the sunrise for Santiago went as late as 8:45 AM
Some media outlets carrying the news (in Spanish):

There is no official decree yet; or confirmation whether this decision will be only for 2016, or will be carried from now on (or until the next goverment :P)
