We introduce [SeaLLM-7B-v2.5](https://huggingface.co/SeaLLMs/SeaLLM-7B-v2.5), the state-of-the-art multilingual LLM for Southeast Asian (SEA) languages 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 🇻🇳 🇮🇩 🇹🇭 🇲🇾 🇰🇭 🇱🇦 🇲🇲 🇵🇭. It is the most significant upgrade since [SeaLLM-13B](https://huggingface.co/SeaLLMs/SeaLLM-13B-Chat), with half the size, outperforming performance across diverse multilingual tasks, from world knowledge, math reasoning, instruction following, etc.
