Hong Kong: Hong Kong's former finance chief John Tsang announced his bid to run for leader, promising to resolve conflict after a tumultuous period which has seen major anti-Beijing protests. The city has become sharply divided under outgoing Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying, who opponents cast as a puppet of the Chinese government squeezing the semi-autonomous city's freedoms. Nicknamed "Mr Pringles" for his resemblance to the crisp brand's mascot, a smiling Tsang, 65, held up his phone to reveal a cartoon sticker of himself in the style of the moustachioed Pringles icon as he announced his candidacy.
