Currently under English (Singapore) locale date_fmt is formatted like this: Friday 07,January,2011 11:44:44 PM SGT

The commas are weird and are not the convention in Singapore. The attached patch changes that and other related formats to better values:

t_fmt_ampm from "%I:%M:%S %p %Z" to "%I:%M:%S %p" (removed time zone; redundant because Singapore spans only one time zone)
t_fmt from "%I:%M:%S %Z" to "%T" (changed to 24h time)
d_t_fmt from "%A %d,%B,%Y %I:%M:%S %Z" to "%a %d %b %Y %r" (removed awkward commas, use abbreviated month names)
d_fmt from "%A %d,%B,%Y" to "%d/%m/%Y"
