His current research interests focus on customary land tenures and resource development, including broader issues of governance in post-conflict Timor-Leste and decentralised Indonesia. He has had visiting academic appointments and affiliations at the International Institute for Asian Studies, University of Leiden (1998 & 2005), the Kahin Centre for Southeast Asian Studies, Cornell University (2007) and Yale University (2010).
