Philip Payne, an Australian, graduated from the University of Sydney in 1981 and is admitted to practice law in Australia and Papua New Guinea. Prior to joining the law firm ABNR in Indonesia, he was a partner in the law firm Blake Dawson for 17 years (including 7 years as that firm’s resident partner in Indonesia). He has practiced in Indonesia since 2000 and has considerable experience in the areas of mining, oil & gas projects, direct foreign investment, acquisitions, project finance and asset financing (particularly aircraft and heavy equipment). Philip Payne enjoys to become a guest lecturer at BINUS Business Law where he is welcome to do so in every semester.

BINUS Business Law Program is both progressive and commercial. From my observation, the students are being taught practical and commercial aspects of how the law is applied while also being encouraged to think of how the law can be reformed and improved.
