This is the official theme song for the ASEAN 40th Anniversary celebrations

RISE Composed by Dick Lee Arranged by Kenn C Performed by Stefanie Sun
There is a voice within my mind Singing the songs of distant times Speaking the thoughts from lost horizons Music and words that must be signs Shaping the facets that define How we have come to be the present Descendants...(Ohh...)
Though we're from ten different lands Bound by shores of common sand Singing out as one Let's stand The world is in our hands
No matter where we're from If we could sing one song Dreams that are yours and mine They will be realised Trusting the love we feel Trust in the love that's real Children unite People of ASEAN rise!
Pushing horizons that've been in faith Our differences we will embrace Shaping as one Our common future Our future... (Ohh...)
Though we're from ten different lands Bound by shores of common sand Singing out as one Let's stand The world is in our hands
No matter where we're from If we could sing one song Dreams that are yours and mine They will be realised Trusting the love we feel Trust in the love that's real Children unite People of ASEAN rise!
Trusting the love we feel Trust in the love that's real Children unite People of ASEAN RISE!

I would like to share one of the songs of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) entitled "Let Us Move Ahead" which I have heard by an accident. However, this is my first time the post this song outside Metropop.

LET US MOVE AHEAD (ASEAN Song)
Throughout these years We have resolved Working hard together For a hard community The beauty of diversity Bridging all the differences A sense of unity
CHORUS: Let us move ahead Hand in hand as one Let the virtue stand And face the challenges of time Let us move ahead Integrate as one To an ASEAN community Prosperity, peace and harmony
The future our's We have the strength We shall find the peace Within ourselves and with the world And as we strive In our resolve Sharing this one vision of a true community
Repeat the Chorus
Repeat I except the sixth line
Repeat the Chorus two times
To an ASEAN community Prosperity, peace and harmony

TRIVIA: The members of ASEAN are Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam

The Metro Manila Popular Music Festival (also known as Metropop) is a songwriting competition launched by the Popular Music Foundation of the Philippines in 1977. Its objective was to promote the advancement of Filipino music, and its chief proponents were Teodoro Valencia and Imee Marcos. There were a total of eight festivals held; the Finals nights were held from 1978 to 1985.
This songwriting competition was originally open to all music composers; however, from the Fifth festival onwards, the competition was divided into Professional and Amateur Divisions, to give new songwriters a level playing field without competing with more well-known composers.
These festivals launched many the careers of songwriters and singers (who interpreted the songs), and gave original Pilipino music more than a few memorable and modern-day song classics.
