Or, more excitingly, Nepal:

 tzselect
 Please identify a location so that time zone rules can be set correctly.
 Please select a continent or ocean.
 [...]
  5) Asia
 [...]
 #? 5
 Please select a country.
 [...]
 #? 32

 The following information has been given:

	 Nepal

 Therefore TZ='Asia/Katmandu' will be used.
 Local time is now:      Fri Jun 20 22:35:04 NPT 2003.
 Universal Time is now:  Fri Jun 20 16:50:04 UTC 2003.
 Is the above information OK?
