SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Pope Francis on Thursday urged political leaders in Singapore, a leading global financial hub, to seek fair wages for the country's million-plus lower-paid foreign workers.

In likely the last major speech of an ambitious 12-day tour across Southeast Asia and Oceania, the 87-year-old pontiff expressed concern for Singapore's rapidly ageing population and its migrant workforce, centred in the construction and domestic services industries.

"I hope that special attention will be paid to the poor and the elderly ... as well as to protecting the dignity of migrant workers," the pope said in an address to about 1,000 politicians and civil and religious leaders.

"These workers contribute a great deal to society and should be guaranteed a fair wage," he said.

There were 1.1 million foreigners on work permits in Singapore who earned less than S$3,000 ($2,300) per month as of December 2023, including 286,300 domestic workers and 441,100 workers in the construction, shipyard and process sectors, government data shows.

Many of the migrant workers come from nearby countries such as Malaysia, China, Bangladesh and India. Many also come from the Philippines, a majority Catholic country.

Would you prefer banging 72 hookers in 'jannah'?
I have no inclination for that but I would understand others would. Why would that be wrong in heaven?
Isn't heaven supposed to be our reward for being good on earth?
Christians always have convoluted ideas, just like elevating the Poke as gods emissary on earth.
Human elevating another human. Like that you don't need god la.

The propaganda and gaslighting from the media is incredible. :rolleyes:

That place was chosen for only one reason: Pope Francis (Jorge Mario Bergoglio) is a Jesuit.

St Francis Xavier was a Jesuit. Get it now?
