Pope Francis (88) visited Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim country with a population of approximately 240 million, on the 3rd (local time). From that day to the 13th, he will visit four countries: Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Singapore. The flight distance alone is approximately 33,000 km, and it is a forced march that involves presiding over at least 40 events.
He will celebrate outdoor Masses in all four countries, likely calling for an end to discrimination and persecution based on faith and a joint response to climate change.
Pope Francis, who ascended to the throne in 2013, had part of his lung removed as a teenager and has had difficulty moving recently due to knee and back pain. He was scheduled to attend the UN climate conference in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) in December last year, but canceled due to bronchitis. There are concerns that the elderly pope will continue to march like a guerrilla training.
