About East Africa Time (EAT)
East Africa Time (EAT, IANA: Africa/Nairobi, Africa/Addis_Ababa) is the civil time for East African countries, set at UTC+3:00 year-round (no DST). EAT serves approximately 320 million people across: Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, South Sudan, Comoros, Madagascar (mainland — UTC+3), and Mayotte (French territory — UTC+3). EAT shares the same UTC offset as Moscow Standard Time (MSK), Saudi Arabian Standard Time (AST-SA), Turkey Time (TRT), and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) — making coordination with the Middle East and Russia simple year-round. Major EAT cities: Cairo (22M metro — uses EET/CAT not EAT), Nairobi Kenya (4.4M city, 9M metro — diplomatic + UN headquarters for East Africa), Addis Ababa Ethiopia (5M city, 5.5M metro — African Union headquarters), Dar es Salaam Tanzania (5M city, 7M metro), Kampala Uganda (1.7M city, 4M metro), Mogadishu (2.6M), Khartoum (Sudan — uses CAT not EAT).

About Hong Kong Time (HKT)
Hong Kong Time (HKT, IANA: Asia/Hong_Kong) is the civil time of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, set at UTC+8:00 year-round (no DST).

HKT is identical in offset to China Standard Time (CST), Macau Time (MOT), Singapore Time (SGT), Philippine Time (PHT), Australian Western Standard Time (AWST), Malaysia Time (MYT). HKT serves Hong Kong's approximately 7.4 million residents in one of the world's most densely populated and economically dynamic territories (Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, New Territories, Lantau Island, and 263 outlying islands). Major Hong Kong districts: Central + Western (financial district), Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Sha Tin, Tuen Mun. Despite Hong Kong's small geographic size (1,114 km²), it is the world's 4th-largest financial center after New York, London, Singapore per Z/Yen GFCI rankings. Affects: HKEX (Hong Kong Stock Exchange) trading hours 09:30-16:00 HKT, Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok flight operations, MTR + Star Ferry public transit schedules, and Hong Kong horse-racing at Happy Valley + Sha Tin race-courses.
