[C# 2.0] How to load different culture's date time?

How to load other culture's Date and Time format without changing the Region's setting in the Control Panel? Here is what I did:
//change the culture in order to read the DateTime
DateTimeFormatInfo oDateTimeFormatInfo = (new CultureInfo("zh-tw")).DateTimeFormat;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("zh-tw");
Don't forget to include the namespace:

using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;
