So is not possible to have an official alias like Antarctica/McMurdo and Antarctica/DumontDUrville? In that way it will be easier to identify the time zone name on different softwares and interfaces. Is not nice to see Singapore when you are so distant from it...
Regards,

Erik

It already has an identifier that can be used in Linux. The identifier is Asia/Singapore.

Hi to all.

Thanks!
Will it also be added as Antarctica/Concordia? So it could be used in Linux, like Antarctica/DumontDUrville.
