“May lakas na galing sa tubig, at sa puso mo’y mahika / Bibigyang dangal ang pamana, ‘pag liwanag ang ‘yong dala / Magkaisa nang tumibay, at ‘di mahihiwalay / Tatatag, ‘wag lamang matakot na subukan,” Tandingan sings in “Gabay,” in which she calls for unity and trust, among others.

In “Raya and the Last Dragon,” Disney features its first-ever Southeast Asian heroine, Raya, who is voiced by Vietnamese-American actress Kelly Marie Tran.
