MEMORANDUM
Erna Sari Dewi (“Dewi”), a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) affirming the denial of her application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). Dewi fears that if she were to return to Indonesia, she would be persecuted and tortured on account of her Christian religion and Chinese ethnicity. The immigration judge (“IJ”) found Dewi credible but concluded that Dewi had not established past persecution or a well-founded fear of future persecution, nor that she would be tortured by or with the acquiescence of the government.
We review the factual findings of the BIA for substantial evidence. INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478 , 481 n. 1, 112 S.Ct. 812 , 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992). To the extent that the BIA adopts the IJ’s findings, we review those for substantial evidence as well. Lopez-Cardona v. Holder, 662 F.3d 1110, 1111 (9th Cir.2011). We grant Dewi’s petition for review in part and remand to the BIA for further consideration in light of our decision in Tampubolon v. Holder, 610 F.3d 1056 (9th Cir.2010).
