The closest answer to your question is probably: Malaysia.

Of course there is no such thing as "summer" or "winter" in Malaysia, as they are pretty close to the equator. For the same reason, they have about 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness — every day, every season. In this situation, the reasonable options for setting clocks with regards to sunlight are either 6-18, or 7-19. Malaysia went with 7-19 option. "Solar noon" happens in Kuala Lumpur around 13:10, with the earliest at 12:56 (beginning of November) and the latest at 13:27 (middle of February).
