Rotation tool rotates counterclockwise, when he must turn to the right.

Here in the United Kingdom, I thought when we have something turn of 90 degrees, the object would turn clockwise by 90 degrees.  For example, I have a standing lamp post in front of me.  If I rotate it 90 degrees with the axis, the basis, I expect keel right that I have in front, in other words, it rotates 90 degrees to the right, swing to there base.

However, when I go to Illustrator, create a new object, double-click the Rotate tool and type '90' and 'Enter'... and the object rotates 90 degrees to the left...

I don't even know if it's supposed to be like this, I searched online and could not find similar problems, so I don't know if everyone always turns things to the left by default.  I however find it paradoxical and would like to know if there is a setting that I can change or if there is a way to reverse this trend, so that I can rotate objects clockwise by default?

I look forward to any comments is on this...
