Correct Option: 1  

Explanation:
People's Republic of China
5 time zones were declared in China in 1912 under the Republic of China. After the Chinese Civil War in 1949, the People's Republic of China established one time zone (UTC+8) for all its territories, and the Republic of China continued with Taiwan as UTC+8. When Hong Kong and Macau ceased being colonies in 1997 and 1999 and became special administrative regions, they retained their policies about time zones: both are UTC+8. So, coincidentally, all are in the same time zone.
