From Xiao Jianfeng:

In Arabic number, today is "2005= =E5=B9=B412=E6=9C=8822=E6=97=A5", and in Chinese number,
today is "= =E4=BA=8C=E2=97=8B=E2=97=8B=E4=BA=94=E5=B9=B4=E5=8D=81=E4=BA=8C=E6=9C=88= =E4=BA=8C=E5=8D=81=E4=BA=8C=E6=97=A5". Both are often used, and the
f= ormer is more popular now, because it is easier to write or type
with= keyboard.


So it's= up to you...
