How it works
Hong Kong uses the Asia/Hong_Kong timezone, a fixed UTC+8 all year. The clock is computed by your browser from your device's clock plus the IANA timezone database it ships with, the same source operating systems use, so daylight saving switches apply automatically on the correct dates.
