Thousands of Roman Catholic worshippers follow a procession of the movement of the Tuan Ma (Mother Mary)
statue in Larantuka town, Indonesia's Flores island. They believe the statue, which was founded in Flores in
1510, formed the basis of the religion that has replaced animism on the island. Government data in 2008
showed that more than 80 percent of residents on Flores Island are Roman Catholic in a predominantly Muslim
country. REUTERS
