※ 引述《miaochu (喵啾!)》之铭言：
: Could anyone tell me which of the following is correct?
: 1. as of now (or date, eg 20 Dec)
: 2. as at now (or date, eg. 20 Dec)
: The first one is what I learned in school while the second one
: is what my singaporean colleague uses frenquently.
: Just wonder which one is correct or both will do.

I would say that 1.as of now would be correct.
2.as at now is actually grammatically wrong.
I am a Singaporean myself and it is indeed true that
sometimes our English may not be very accurate.
Like what Pinkyyang has said,
our English is often mixed with our languages, forming "Singlish".
