Nearly half of Timor-Leste's population attend mass led by Pope Francis
Hundreds of thousands of people in Timor-Leste have attended a mass led by Pope Francis. According to some estimates, about half of the country's 1.3 million population attended the mass. This large turnout not only highlights Timor-Leste's strong Catholic majority, but also its multi-dimensional relationship with the Vatican. Pope Francis is set to meet a group of young people tomorrow morning before attending a farewell ceremony at the airport. He will then depart Timor-Leste for Singapore -- the final leg of his historic Asia-Pacific tour. Leong Wai Kit reports from Dili.
