Goeij

MEMORANDUM **

Agus Goetomo Goeij, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the summary affirmance by the Board of Immigration Appeals of the denial of his application for asylum. 8 U.S.C. § 1158 (a). As this is a streamlined case, we review the decision of the immigration judge (“U”). 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1 (a)(7). We deny the petition.

We review the IJ’s decision to see if there is substantial evidence to support it. INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 483-84 , 112 S.Ct. 812 , 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992). This court may reverse the IJ’s factual findings only if “a reasonable factfinder would be compelled to find the petitioner eligible for the relief sought.” Gomez-Saballos v. INS, 79 F.3d 912 , 914 (9th Cir.1997).

The IJ made no adverse finding regarding Goeij’s credibility. Thus, we “assume that [Goeij’s] factual contentions are true.” Kataria v. INS, 232 F.3d 1107, 1114 (9th Cir.2000).
