Indonesia: BANI Moves Arbitration Online
At the height of the Coronavirus crisis in March 2020, the Indonesian National Arbitration Board or BANI issued Decree No. 20.007/III/SK-BANI/HU to temporarily suspend all arbitration proceedings in BANI in an effort to contain the outbreak. Now, as the government and businesses are starting to assess the 'new normal,' BANI has revoked the March decree and issued Decree Number 20.015/V/SK-BANI/HU on the Rules and Procedures for Electronic Arbitration. Under the new decree, arbitrations can now be held or continued online by using an electronic telecommunication platform, while observing the arbitration principles that apply in BANI.

Preparing and attending a virtual arbitration hearing
The question of whether COVID-19 would forever change the world as we know it remains to be answered. For the time being, however, the pandemic has certainly changed the way we live and conduct business. In an effort to adjust to the current requirements of strict social distancing, we have had to be creative and use technology to our advantage. For instance, in order to sustain the administration of justice, we have had to allow virtual hearings to become the new norm.
