GMT ISSUE of Malaysia

[Guest guest]

Dear Masters my humble greetings.

Please could i trouble you with my concern of the GMT issue of

Malaysia. We at Malaysia have gone through a number of Daylight

savings issue. At present we stand at +08.00 GMT. But in actual fact

when the lats and logs are used to calculate it stands at +06hrs

47mins. This is most obvious for West Malaysia.

Your valuable assistance could help solve this problem as its is only

peculiar of the Malaysian Indians. Many at Malaysia are using jhora

because of its excellence and your assistance could extent its use here.

 

The million dollar question is " Should we use +6hrs 47mins or should

we use the Malaysian Mean Time as per the year of birth?

If we use LMT should we consider adding the Daylight Savings factor in

the data input?

Your most valuable answer will put many Malaysian Indians in the right

track to performing their remedial measures especially the religious ones.

Kindly help us help ourselves.

 

We thank you humbly.

 

 

Your truly,

 

Devamanohari
