When it comes to presence on social networks, Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle may have a huge advantage over other prospective cardinals who may succeed Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.

Tagle, 55, is the most active cardinal on Facebook, Discovery News cited a social media analysis by the Italian start-up Decisyon.

“Tagle, regarded as ‘The Asian Karol Wojtyła,’ boasts 123,000 ‘Likes.’ Decisyon established that since Jan. 1, his page has accounted for 52 percent of cardinals’s social-media use, producing more than 57,000 posts, comments and shares,” Discovery News said.

As of 8 a.m. Sunday, Tagle’s Facebook page has 126,177 likes, with 4,628 talking about it.
