Saichia Wongwirot (Template:Lang-th; RTGS: Sai-chia Wongwirot) is a Thai actor, comedian, singer and stuntman. He is also featured in several world class films.
He was born in 1969 in Chiang Rai province, later migrating to Kamphaeng Phet province. His name "Saichia" is derived from the Asian Highway 12 (in Thailand was called "ทางหลวงสายเอเชีย"; Tang Luang Sai Asia; "Asian Highway Line"). His father gave him this name because he was born in the same year that this highway was built.[1]
He had the opportunity to play in his first film, Rambo III (1988), from seeing newspaper ads for supporting actors.
He has since starred as supporting actor in several famous films as A Moment of Romance (1990), Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003), Batman Begins (2005), Typhoon (2005), Rescue Dawn (2006), Rambo (2008), Ninja: Shadow of a Tear (2013), Lost in Thailand (2013) or Only God Forgives (2013), while working in Thai films such as Buppah Rahtree (2003), Ghost Station (2007), Rahtree Reborn (2009), Power Kids (2009), Sua Sung Fah (2011) and Bangkok Assassins (2011) etc.
In Thailand, he is famously known in a campaign, which aims to decrease alcohol consumption among poor people, by the Thai Health Promotion Foundation (ThaiHealth) in 2008. He shouted "Jon Kriad Kin Lao" (จน เครียด กินเหล้า; "I'm poor! I'm stressed! So I drink!"). This phrase was repeated several times until the identity, which has afforded by singing the same name.[2] In some other countries, it has become an Internet sensation, particularly in Vietnam.
