The right to build (Hak Guna Bangunan) is the right to land that grants the authority to construct something upon it. In the context of the Agrarian Law (UU PA), HGB is defined as the right to establish and own buildings on land that is not one’s own.
Meanwhile, the right to use (Hak Pakai) is the right to use and/or collect the produce from land directly controlled by the state or owned by others. This right confers authority and obligations specified in the granting decision by the authorized official or in an agreement with the landowner. It is not a lease agreement or land cultivation agreement, as long as it does not contradict the spirit and provisions of the Agrarian Law.
