The 18th Southeast Asia Bodybuilding and Physique Sports Championships featured participants from Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Brunei, Laos, Cambodia, Timor Leste, and Myanmar. Currently, there are indications that bodybuilding may be included in the competition program of the 33rd SEA Games in Thailand, although the organizing committee has yet to make an official announcement. Bodybuilding was excluded from the competition program of the 32nd SEA Games held in Cambodia. This year's Southeast Asia Championship is also Vietnam's inaugural participation in an international championship within the regional championship system.
