HONG KONG, Feb 6 (Reuters) - Hong Kong leader John Lee said on Monday the financial hub would support Saudi oil giant Aramco (2222.SE) if it chose to list in the city.

Hong Kong will be able to handle any of Aramco's future funding arrangements and investment opportunities, John Lee said in a post on his official Facebook account after meeting the group's chief executive.
