She’s channeled her dream of being a professional golfer into a career in TV news. Yvonne Adelia’s competitive skills suit her well in the challenging world of journalism.
Adelia is a member of Metro TV’s pioneering Metro Xin Wen Chinese-language team, anchoring NewsFlash segments.
Born in Jakarta, Adelia received her higher education in Australia, Japan and the U.S. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in marketing communications at City University in Seattle, Washington.
Because she speaks and reads four languages – Bahasa Indonesia, English, Mandarin and Japanese - she was in demand as a translator following graduation. She joined Metro TV in February 2008.
Besides golf, playing the piano takes up Adelia’s leisure time.
