Hello,
   Your server time below reveals the problem.  The "EDT" stands for
Eastern Daylight Time, the time zone of the Eastern United States, which
is GMT minus 4 hours.  Since you are GMT plus 8 hours, there is the
12 hour difference.  Fix your time zone setting on your server and this
should fix your problem.
