| 2742# From K Sethu (2006-04-25): 2743# I think the abbreviation LKT originated from the world of computers at 2744# the time of or subsequent to the time zone changes by SL Government 2745# twice in 1996 and probably SL Government or its standardization 2746# agencies never declared an abbreviation as a national standard. | 2752# From Sadika Sumanapala (2016-10-19): 2753# According to http://www.sltime.org (maintained by Measurement Units, 2754# Standards & Services Department, Sri Lanka) abbreviation for Sri Lanka 2755# standard time is SLST. |
| 2747# | 2756# |
| 2748# I recollect before the recent change the government announcements 2749# mentioning it as simply changing Sri Lanka Standard Time or Sri Lanka 2750# Time and no mention was made about the abbreviation. 2751# 2752# If we look at Sri Lanka Department of Government's "Official News 2753# Website of Sri Lanka" ... http://www.news.lk/ we can see that they 2754# use SLT as abbreviation in time stamp at the beginning of each news 2755# item.... 2756# 2757# Within Sri Lanka I think LKT is well known among computer users and 2758# administrators. In my opinion SLT may not be a good choice because the 2759# nation's largest telcom / internet operator Sri Lanka Telcom is well 2760# known by that abbreviation - simply as SLT (there IP domains are 2761# slt.lk and sltnet.lk). 2762# 2763# But if indeed our government has adopted SLT as standard abbreviation 2764# (that we have not known so far) then it is better that it be used for 2765# all computers. | 2757# From Paul Eggert (2016-10-18): 2758# "SLST" seems to be reasonably recent and rarely-used outside time 2759# zone nerd sources. I searched Google News and found three uses of 2760# it in the International Business Times of India in February and 2761# March of this year when discussing cricket match times, but nothing 2762# since then (though there has been a lot of cricket) and nothing in 2763# other English-language news sources. Our old abbreviation "LKT" is 2764# even worse. For now, let's use a numeric abbreviation; we can 2765# switch to "SLST" if it catches on. |
