You may also select the option that contains Hongkong with a regular expression. You may make the following changes:
'Select the option that contains \"Hongkong"\'
WebUI.selectOptionByLabel(findTestObject('Page_CuraAppointment/lst_Facility'), 'Hongkong.*', true)
Hongkong.* is the sample regular expression. This matches all the strings that contain Hongkong, and is followed by zero or more of any character.
