Pope Francis has arrived in Singapore, marking the final leg of his extensive 12-day tour across Southeast Asia and Oceania, aimed at bolstering the Catholic Church's influence in the region. This visit makes him only the second pope to visit the city-state, home to approximately 210,000 Catholics in a population of 5.92 million.
