System of units in Mathcad

There are SI, MKS, SGS, U.S., None and Custom System of units in Mathcad 15.

There are SI, SGS (not quite correct - without stat units) and U.S System of units in Mathcad Prime.

The base system of units in Europa, Canada, Russia etc is SI.

The base system of units in USA is U.S.

Do you know what country has the SGS as a base system of units?

I have one postgraduate student from Myanmar (Burma).

This country has not only own system of units but an own system of digits: not 1, 2, 3... but bla, bla, bla...

Hahahaha - I can vouch for this. I went there about two years ago for a site visit for a pipeline installation contract we won and to say the client was challenging, would be an understatement.

I asked one bartender in London, why they do not use in England a half liter mugs, but pint volume one. The bartender showed me his tablet with Mathcad Prime:
