| 1097 1098# From Rives McDow (2002-03-13): 1099# I have been advised that Pakistan has decided to adopt dst on a 1100# TRIAL basis for one year, starting 00:01 local time on April 7, 2002 1101# and ending at 00:01 local time October 6, 2002. This is what I was 1102# told, but I believe that the actual time of change may be 00:00; the 1103# 00:01 was to make it clear which day it was on. 1104 1105# From Paul Eggert (2002-03-15): 1106# Jesper Norgaard found this URL: 1107# http://www.pak.gov.pk/public/news/app/app06_dec.htm 1108# (dated 2001-12-06) which says that the Cabinet adopted a scheme "to 1109# advance the clocks by one hour on the night between the first 1110# Saturday and Sunday of April and revert to the original position on 1111# 15th October each year". This agrees with McDow's 04-07 at 00:00, 1112# but disagrees about the October transition, and makes it sound like 1113# it's not on a trial basis. Also, the "between the first Saturday 1114# and Sunday of April" phrase, if taken literally, means that the 1115# transition takes place at 00:00 on the first Sunday on or after 04-02. 1116 1117# Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S 1118Rule Pakistan 2002 max - Apr Sun>=2 0:00 1:00 S 1119Rule Pakistan 2002 max - Oct 15 0:00 0 - |
