Biography

Yian Lee is a Taipei-based journalist reporting for Initium Media. He started his career as an investigative journalist in 2018, mainly covering environmental and agricultural topics focusing on their implications on domestic or international politics. 

He has reported on how the Chinese loggers in Solomon Islands are exploiting the country’s primary forest, bringing huge environmental impacts to this island country that heavily relies on extractive economy, which in turn became a driving force for Solomon Islands’ strategic turns on the geopolitical stage. 

His report on the trade wars between Beijing and Taipei on agricultural products was a finalist for the SOPA editorial award of Excellence in Business Reporting.
