Jackie Chan's movie which Alex Yoong helped .
After the Guia race, he then moved into the Formula Asia International Championship, a single-seater series that raced in several countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Thailand and China. During his first season in 1994, he took several podium finishes before his first win in the season-ending round at Zhuhai in China.
He is now starting to make a name for himself in the racing world. He also helped in the filming of Jackie Chan's racing movie, Thunderbolt at Shah Alam, which made the star to start calling him a "very good racing driver". In addition, he had attracted attention in Europe. Towards the end of 1995, Paul Stewart invited him to test a Formula Vauxhall car, before that, he also got the opportunity to test a Formula Renault Sport machine at Donington and Snetterton for the Startline Racing team. This has encouraged him to make a decision to go to Europe in order to pursue his dream as a part of Formula One.
