    HONG KONG'S former No. 2 and No. 3 officials have been given the all-clear to enter the March 26 election for the city's next leader.

    China's central government yesterday announced approval of the resignations of Hong Kong Chief Secretary Carrie Lam and Financial Secretary John Tsang, which means both can now contend for the position of Hong Kong Chief Executive.
