confused regarding AWS lambda function execution limits

I was check AWS Lambda FAQs regarding how long an AWS Lambda function can execute, but found different information on the following URLs.

  1. https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/faqs/

    Q: How long can an AWS Lambda function execute?

    A: AWS Lambda functions can be configured to run up to 15 minutes per execution. You can set the timeout to any value between 1 second and 15 minutes.

  2. https://www.amazonaws.cn/en/lambda/faqs/

    Q: How long can an AWS Lambda function execute?

    A: All calls made to AWS Lambda must complete execution within 300 seconds. The default timeout is 3 seconds, but you can set the timeout to any value between 1 and 300 seconds.

can anyone help me to find out which one is correct?

On October 10, 2018 the execution time limit for AWS Lambda functions was increased from 5 minutes to 15 minutes.

Therefore, you will still see many references to the old 5 minute limit.

See: AWS Lambda enables functions that can run up to 15 minutes
