Board of Immigration Appeals

Submitted March 12, 2013 ** Before: PREGERSON, REINHARDT, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.

We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings, Wakkary v. Holder, 558 F.3d 1049, 1056 (9th Cir. 2009), and we deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s determination that, even under a disfavored group analysis, Watung failed to present sufficient evidence of individualized risk to establish it is more likely than not he will be persecuted in Indonesia. See Halim v. Holder, 590 F.3d 971, 979-80 (9th Cir. 2009); Wakkary, 558 F.3d at 1066 (“[a]n applicant for withholding of removal will need to adduce a considerably larger quantum of individualized-risk evidence to prevail than would an asylum applicant”). Thus, his withholding of removal claim fails.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
