Answer 1

Yeah thanks, i try in my controller like this :

if (!defined('BASEPATH'))
    exit('No direct script access allowed');
/*
 * Description of Testime
 * @class Testing
 */

class Testing extends CI_Controller {

    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Jakarta');
    }

    public function index(){
        echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
    }
}

And works :)
