I tried the command lines (hwclock etc). but the problem exists. During
shutdown, it seems at shutdown random seed, there was an quick error
'failed to synchronize hardware clock to the system clock'
During the boot at startup auditd, there was some error, something like,
' denied ( write )  '. not sure if they are related.

here is the cat /etc/sysconfig/clock

ZONE="Australia/Sydney"
UTC=false
ARC=false
