What do you mean by response? Do you mean the output for the date command?
Try setting the TZ environment variable to the timezone that you want. Else, if you want to set a particular timezone at boot, you can set in the /etc/default/init file.

INIT(8) System Manager's Manual INIT(8)
NAME
init - initialize machine upon booting
SYNOPSIS
/$cputype/init [ -ctm ] [ command ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Init initializes the machine: it establishes the name space (see namespace(4) and newns in auth(2)), and environment (see env(3)) and
starts a shell (rc(1)) on the console. If a command is supplied, that is run instead of the shell. On a CPU server the invoked shell runs
cpurc(8) before accepting commands on the console; on a terminal, it runs termrc and then the user's profile. Options -t (terminal) and -c
(CPU) force the behavior to correspond to the specified service class. Otherwise init uses the value of the environment variable $service
to decide the service class.
Init sets environment variables $service (either to the incoming value or according to -t or -c), $objtype (to the value of $cputype),
$user (to the contents of #c/user), and $timezone (to the contents of /adm/timezone/local).
With option -m init starts only an interactive shell regardless of the command or service class.
On a CPU server, init requires the machine's password to be supplied before starting rc on the console.
Init is invoked by boot(8), which sets the arguments as appropriate.
