Inamonica Inamonica is a 27-year-old native and citizen of Indonesia. She is an ethnically Chinese Christian.

We review for substantial evidence, INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 , 112 S.Ct. 812 , 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992), and deny the petition.
Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s finding that the harm Inamonica suffered did not rise to the level of past persecution. See Prasad v. INS, 47 F.3d 336, 340 (9th Cir.1995). Substantial evidence also supports the IJ’s finding that Inamonica failed to demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution because she failed to show the “comparatively low” individualized risk required by Sael v. Ashcroft, 386 F.3d 922, 927 (9th Cir.2004).
