Mr. Carlos Tejada
Carlos Tejada is the Asia Business Editor for The New York Times. He oversees a team of reporters who cover China, Japan and other points east of Afghanistan and west of Hawaii. He joined the Times in 2016 from The Wall Street Journal.
Carlos has more than two decades of reporting and editing experience, nearly half of it from Asia. He began his career at The Wall Street Journal in 1995, fresh-faced and straight out of college, as a reporting assistant in the Dallas, Texas, bureau. He worked as a reporter and editor in Dallas and New York and was involved in coverage ranging from labor, autos, steel, energy and airlines.
He moved to Hong Kong in 2008 to become the Journal’s deputy bureau chief there, and 2011 moved to Beijing to oversee the Journal’s news coverage of mainland China.

Asia’s rise is the world’s biggest story, and The New York Times wants to be there. China is the world’s largest growth driver, and the region is home to half the world’s population. The Times want to be there when China’s leader declares himself chief for life, when South Korea ousts its president or when a global trade war breaks out. This is a news story and an audience that the Times can’t afford to miss. To tackle it, the Times has bulked up in China, India and Southeast Asia. Further, the Times is no longer solely governed by the print needs and whims of its headquarters in New York. The newsroom in Hong Kong commissions and publishes stories online as needed. The Times is in Asia, knows the story, and is taking charge of it.
