About Emily Angwin, International Journalist

18+ Years Across Global Newsrooms and Live Event Stages

I'm an international presenter, professional MC, corporate event host, and panel moderator with more than 18 years working across global newsrooms and live stages. My career spans international journalism and corporate event hosting in Malaysia, Australia, and throughout Asia. I bring the same authority, warmth, and credibility to both.

My Work - On Air and On Stage Across Asia-Pacific

Major Stories Covered Across Asia, Middle East and Beyond

My career has taken me across four continents, reporting on some of the world's biggest stories. I've covered natural disasters in the Philippines, the ASEAN Summit in Kuala Lumpur, high level diplomatic visits and protests in South East Asia, conservation efforts in South Africa, and the FIFA World Cup in Doha. I've anchored global coverage of the Israel Gaza conflict, the death of Queen Elizabeth II and the U.S. midterms.

I've held senior anchor roles at Al Jazeera English in Qatar, China Global Television Network in Beijing, and the Seven Network in Melbourne, and reported extensively from Manila, Kuala Lumpur, Beijing, and also in Johannesburg and Rio de Janeiro. 

Education and Qualifications

I hold a Bachelor of Communications from RMIT (Melbourne) and I'm completing a Master of International Relations at Queen Mary University of London.

 Based in Kuala Lumpur | Available Across Asia and Australia

I'm based in Malaysia and regularly fly across Asia and Australia for both journalism and corporate events; from Singapore to Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.This dual focus means clients book me for events as well as media and reporting work across the region.

Planning a conference, gala, or corporate event in Malaysia, Australia or Asia?

Corporate Event Hosting and MC Work Across Malaysia, Singapore and Australia

I bring the same discipline and presence from the newsroom to live corporate events. As a professional MC and conference moderator, I've hosted panel discussions in Doha, moderated business forums in Kuala Lumpur, MCed awards ceremonies in Sydney and Melbourne, and kept corporate conferences running smoothly throughout the Asia Pacific region.

My event work spans everything from high-level business summits to charity galas and fundraising auctions. I've presented at some of the world's biggest sporting events including the FIFA World Cup, the Australian Open, the AFL Grand Final, and the Rio Paralympic Games.

I've moderated CEO panels where industry leaders debate the future of business and technology conferences where innovations get unveiled. My news anchor training means I can think on my feet, and my years interviewing people from every background means I know how to draw out the stories that matter.
