1:31Now PlayingHong Kong's former chief secretary John Lee Ka Chiu on Saturday announced his candidacy for next month's chief executive election.
Lee said his campaign will focus on three policy areas, including a "results-oriented approach" to governance.
The official announcement followed various comments from the one-time police officer throughout the week about his intention to stand.
Lee's bid is said to have the approval of Beijing, after central government accepted his resignation as Hong Kong's number two on Thursday.
Hong Kong chief executive elections will be held on May 8.
Current leader Carrie Lam announced earlier this week she would not be seeking a second term.
