Malcolm Moore (2003 - 2004)

United Kingdom

Malcolm came to the Sauvé Scholars Program from London, England where he was a a financial reporter for the Daily Telegraph covering the oil and gas sectors, as well as utilities and cars. Born in Singapore of a Singaporean mother and an English father, who was a trader, for much of his life he traveled extensively with his family throughout the Middle East in Oman, Bahrain, Dubai and Cyprus. His area of interest is energy and its role in shaping the world. He believes that "we are about to see a sea-change...every bit as significant as the formation of OPEC" and wants to consider the world's new oil regions, the environmental movement, and the Western policy response. Iraq, Russia, Africa are all emerging players that will decide how oil revenues will translate into infrastructure and wealth for their populations. Malcolm wants to write the seminal book on this new landscape of the world's energy policy and its political consequences, after touring these regions and learning Arabic and Russian. His favorite part of journalism is "having the license to ask everyone questions about everything."

In July 2008, Malcolm opened the Shanghai bureau of the UK newspaper Daily Telegraph. Prior to that, he spent two years in charge of the newspaper's economics coverage, followed by three years as a foreign correspondent in Rome covering the Italian elections, the collapse of Romano Prodi's government, Pope Benedict's groundbreaking trip to Turkey and much, much more.
