2546# From K Sethu (2006-04-25): 2547# I think the abbreviation LKT originated from the world of computers at 2548# the time of or subsequent to the time zone changes by SL Government 2549# twice in 1996 and probably SL Government or its standardization 2550# agencies never declared an abbreviation as a national standard. | 2765# From Sadika Sumanapala (2016-10-19): 2766# According to http://www.sltime.org (maintained by Measurement Units, 2767# Standards & Services Department, Sri Lanka) abbreviation for Sri Lanka 2768# standard time is SLST. |
2551# | 2769# |
2552# I recollect before the recent change the government announcements 2553# mentioning it as simply changing Sri Lanka Standard Time or Sri Lanka 2554# Time and no mention was made about the abbreviation. 2555# 2556# If we look at Sri Lanka Department of Government's "Official News 2557# Website of Sri Lanka" ... http://www.news.lk/ we can see that they 2558# use SLT as abbreviation in time stamp at the beginning of each news 2559# item.... 2560# 2561# Within Sri Lanka I think LKT is well known among computer users and 2562# administrators. In my opinion SLT may not be a good choice because the 2563# nation's largest telcom / internet operator Sri Lanka Telcom is well 2564# known by that abbreviation - simply as SLT (there IP domains are 2565# slt.lk and sltnet.lk). 2566# 2567# But if indeed our government has adopted SLT as standard abbreviation 2568# (that we have not known so far) then it is better that it be used for 2569# all computers. | 2770# From Paul Eggert (2016-10-18): 2771# "SLST" seems to be reasonably recent and rarely-used outside time 2772# zone nerd sources. I searched Google News and found three uses of 2773# it in the International Business Times of India in February and 2774# March of this year when discussing cricket match times, but nothing 2775# since then (though there has been a lot of cricket) and nothing in 2776# other English-language news sources. Our old abbreviation "LKT" is 2777# even worse. For now, let's use a numeric abbreviation; we can 2778# switch to "SLST" if it catches on. |
