I would suggest a closer time server, such as clock.cuhk.edu.hk (Chinese
University of Hong Kong). Network latencies are less, and so you have
less guesswork for NTP to do. More reliable. Can't remember URL of the
list of NTP servers I found before, but I think it'd be best to find an
NTP server which is networkologically close to you (Pacific Internet gives
me ~500 ms latency on clock.cuhk.edu.hk, which was the best I could get
off my list. Pacific's upstream is in Singapore, but I couldn't find an
open access, freely-usable server there.).
