if you wanted generally solution, and you are not worried about the commands involved. Then you may like this,

Code:
22:12:22 : tmp :cat t.pl 
use DateTime;
$dt = DateTime->new( year   => 1974, month  => 11, day    => 30, hour   => 13, minute => 30, 
    second => 0, nanosecond => 500000000, time_zone => 'Asia/Taipei' );
$epoch_time  = $dt->epoch;
print "$epoch_time\n";
22:12:25 : tmp :perl t.pl
