What time are you trying to enforce? For instance you can store date-time in your database in GMT and convert that to GMT+10 when displaying records. In the alternative, you can convert on the fly the server datestamp to your local time.
If you are trying to display the time on your page via JavaScript, the same "modification" can be made to make it display in time local to you. My server located in GMT-5, hosts a Melbourne site, and that is how they handle it. For others wondering why host in the US, it was a case of there being 15 hops from Melbourne to Sydney, and only 4 hops from Melbourne to the US-based server.
