MEMORANDUM **

Budi Santosa, an ethnic Chinese and citizen of Indonesia, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision affirming the immigration judge’s denial of his application for asylum, withholding of removal and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a). We deny the petition.

Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s denial of Santosa’s request for asylum because Santosa’s experiences with discrimination and witnessing anti-Chinese riots do not demonstrate that he has suffered past persecution or has a well-founded fear of future persecution if returned to Indonesia. See Nagoulko v. INS, 333 F.3d 1012, 1016-18 (9th Cir. 2003); cf. Sael v. Ashcroft, 386 F.3d 922, 927-29 (9th Cir. 2004).

Because Santosa fails to satisfy the standard for asylum, he necessarily fails to satisfy the more stringent standard for withholding of removal. See Khourassany v. INS, 208 F.3d 1096, 1101 (9th Cir. 2000).

Substantial evidence also supports the BIA’s denial of relief under the CAT because the record does not indicate that it is “more likely than not” that Santosa would be tortured if removed to Indonesia. See Gui v. INS, 280 F.3d 1217, 1230 (9th Cir. 2002).

Santosa’s due process contention fails because the BIA opinion provides an individualized review of his claim. See Ghaly v. INS, 58 F.3d 1425, 1430 (9th Cir. 1995).
