Antonio Francisco Juan, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) affirming without opinion the immigration judge’s order finding Juan removable and denying his application for asylum and withholding of removal. The Board and immigration judge’s determination that Juan is not eligible for asylum must be upheld unless that determination is “manifestly contrary to law.” 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(C) (2000). We have reviewed the administrative record and find no error in the Board and immigration judge’s conclusion that Juan failed to establish a well-founded fear of persecution. See 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(42)(A) (2000); M.A. v. INS, 899 F.2d 304, 307 (4th Cir. 1990) (en banc). Accordingly, we deny Juan’s petition for review. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED.
