                                          Abstract

The presence offoreigners in Indonesia for a long period certainly requires a place to live or a residential house.
According to Article 144 (1) b of job Creation Law, foreigners have the right to own flat units in Indonesia. Is
this regulation intended to attractforeign investors? If it isyes, does not it contradictory to the kenasionalan
principle stipulated in the Basic Agrarian Law (BAL) and other Indonesian regulations? This study is aimed to
deal with those legal issues, by using the normative legal method. The result shows that the ownership right
offlat units given to foreigners by the Job Creation Law is in contradiction with the kenasionalan principle,
Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution, and the BAL which only allows land/building use and lease
right for foreigners. In addition, the regulation which allows the establishment of flats on land with building-
use rights for a maximum of 80 (eighty) years raises a legal problem since such regulation had been revoked
by the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia with its Decision Number 21-22/PUU-V/2007. Thus,
the study recommends that the Government conduct a review of the regulation which allows foreigners to
have ownership right to flat units under the Job Creation Law.

Kehadiran WNA  di Indonesia dalam jangka waktu yang lama tentunya membutuhkan tempat tinggal atau
rumah  hunian. Di dalam Hukum Perdata Internasional, peristiwa kepemilikan rumah atau tempat tinggal
oleh WNA  ditentukan dengan asas Lex Rei Sitae, yaitu: diberlakukannya sistem hukum dimana letak objek
berada. Berdasarkan Pasal 144 ayat (1) huruf b Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja No. 11 Tahun 2020, WNA
mempunyai  hak milik atas satuan rumah susun di Indonesia. Apakah pengaturan ini bertujuan untuk
menarik investor asing? Jika ya, tidakkah hal itu bertentangan dengan asas kenasionalan yang disebutkan
dalam UUPA dan peraturan perundangan lainnya di Indonesia? Kajian ini dimaksudkan untuk menjawab isu-
isu hukum tersebut dengan menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif Hasil analisis menunjukkan
bahwa  kepemilikan WNA atas satuan rumah susun berdasarkan UU Cipta Kerja bertentangan dengan asas
kenasionalan, Pasal 33 ayat (3) UUD 1945 dan UUPA yang hanya memberikan hak pakai dan hak sewa
atas tanah/bangunan kepada WNA. Tambahan  pula, pengaturan pendirian rumah susun di atas Hak Guna
Bangunan  (HGB) juga menimbulkan permasalahan terkaitjangka waktu HGB sampai dengan 80 tahun yang
sebelumnya sudah dibatalkan melalui Putusan MKRI Nomor21-22/PUU-V/2007. Oleh karena itu disarankan
kepada Pemerintah agar segera meninjau kembali pengaturan kepemilikan satuan rumah susun oleh WNA
yang diatur dalam UU Cipta Kerja.
Kata Kunci: Pengaturan; Kepemiikan atas Satuan Rumah Susun; WNA; UU Cipta Kerja
