[Bug 1986803] Re: Incorrect/misleading Time Format For ms_MY (AM/PM)

[Simon Chopin]

Hi!

Thank you for the report.

I tried to find more information about time representation in Malaysia,
but the only thing I could find was this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_and_time_representation_by_country#/media/File:12_24_Hours_World_Map.svg

Assuming this map is correct, the expected representation should be
using 12-hour format, as is the case currently. However I'm assuming
there should be a marker to differentiate betwen AM and PM, which I
cannot see.

Can you confirm that, or maybe point us to a more reliable source on
which to base the format?

Title:
  Incorrect/misleading Time Format For ms_MY (AM/PM)

Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Date format problem when representing time in ms_MY. 12-hour clock is
  used despite AM/PM localization string is empty.

  Expectation: 
  When running the command `date`, output was `Rabu 17 Ogos 2022 20:35:36  +08`

  What happened instead:
  When running the command `date`, output was `Rabu 17 Ogos 2022 08:35:36  +08`

  These were run during the PM side of time. When running it in the
  morning, it shows as expected.
