It seems apt that Disney’s first ever South-East Asian princess should be called Raya. For she certainly is a character worthy of celebration.

There is certainly a lot to celebrate about Raya And the Last Dragon. As you might have already heard, the movie is inspired by South-East Asian cultures, and is written by a pair of South-East Asians, one of whom is Malaysian, Adele Lim (Crazy Rich Asians).
