Philippine P-pop act SB19 has performed “Together in Motion”, the official song accompanying the country’s chairship of ASEAN in 2026. Its music video has been released, with Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken and Justin singing about regional unity and cooperation.

The song reflects the chairship theme, “Navigating Our Future, Together”. The video depicts people, destinations and cultures around Southeast Asia, underscoring the idea of countries progressing together and sharing a regional identity.

Tourism Secretary Dita Angara-Mathay said the group was selected for its positive influence and contribution to promoting Filipino culture, according to GMA News. She also pointed to its growing domestic and international reach, saying its influence extended into tourism and the creative industry.

SB19 was named a Philippine tourism ambassador in June. The Department of Tourism enlisted the group to introduce the country’s culture and destinations to audiences abroad.

Metro Manila will host the 49th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits from November 16 to 18 during the Philippines’ year-long chairship. SB19 also made its Lollapalooza Chicago debut in July.
