As you know, i can use System.currentTimeMillis() to fetch current local

Are you sure that currentTimeMillis() gives you local time? It's
documented as the current system time in milliseconds since January
1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. From that description, I'd expect it to return
a raw millisecond count; there's no timezone offset involved. If
anything, it's going to be UTC, but in truth, it isn't inherently in
*any* time zone.
It all depends on what you're wanting to do with the timestamp. We
probably need more information to guide you here.

time in milliseconds in doc. and ask this stupid question, sorry for that.
