# 2010 midnight. The decision came at a cabinet meeting at the Prime
# Minister's Office last night..."
# From Danvin Ruangchan (2009-12-24):
# ...the news mentions DST will be turned off again 7 months after March
# 31st on Oct 31, 2010.
# From Arthur David Olson (2009-12-26):
# Indeed, "The government will advance again the Banglasdesh Standard
# Time by one one hour on March 31 next year by enforcing the Daylight
# Saving Time (DST) for seven months. It will continue till October 31
# until further notice." I take that last sentence as the
# establishment of a rule.
# From Nobutomo Nakano (2010-02-19):
# We received a report from Bangladesh saying that the start/end of
# Bangladesh DST is incorrect. Currently we have only the Bengali version
# of the official mail from BTRC which describes the following:
#
# "From 2010 each year when local standard time is about to reach
# March 31 at 10:59:00 PM clocks are turned forward 1 hour (11:59:00 PM)
# and when local daylight time is about to October 31 at 11:59:00 PM
# clocks are turned backward 1 hour (10:59:00 PM)."
#
# So, DST will start/end 1 minute earlier.
