Both cities work Monday to Friday, Hong Kong typically 09:00–18:00 and Johannesburg 08:00–17:00 local time.

The shared window is short: 15:00–17:00 Hong Kong time, 09:00–11:00 in Johannesburg. Guard it for the conversations that need everyone, and let the rest happen in writing. Neither city observes daylight saving, so the gap holds all year.
