The Krairiksh family (Thai: ไกรฤกษ์, RTGS: Krairoek, pronounced [krāj.rɤ̂ːk]) is a Thai family of Chinese descent which traces its ancestry to Phraya Kraikosa (born Roek Sae-Lim)[Chinese script needed], a Hokkien Chinese born to immigrant parents who became Krommatha (lord of the Harbour Department) under King Taksin. The family name was bestowed by King Vajiravudh in 1913.[1] Many of the descendants of the Krairiksh family occupy key positions at the bureaucracy, finance, the professions and academia.[2]
