Pope Francis wrapped up his 12-day Asia Pacific tour with a visit to Singapore, where he met with local officials and dignitaries. During his visit, the pontiff warned of the negative impact of artificial intelligence on society, emphasizing the need for fair wages for migrant workers. He highlighted the importance of using technology to bring people together and promote understanding and solidarity, rather than isolating individuals or creating a false reality.
In his address to local leaders, Pope Francis called for special attention to protect the dignity of migrant workers, who contribute significantly to society. He urged for fair wages and better treatment for these workers, who often come from countries like Bangladesh, China, India, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Advocates welcomed the pope’s remarks, agreeing with his call for fair compensation and better protections for migrant workers.
The pope’s visit to Singapore included a mass at the National Stadium, where thousands of Catholics gathered to see him. His tour also included stops in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and East Timor, where he held a mass for a large crowd. This visit marked an opportunity for the Catholic community in Singapore and the region to connect with Pope Francis and receive his message of solidarity and fairness for all individuals, regardless of their background or nationality. After his visit to Singapore, the pope is set to return to Rome, concluding his successful Asia Pacific tour.
