Karim

MEMORANDUM **

Achmad Karim and his wife, natives and citizens of Indonesia, petition for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing them appeal from an immigration judge’s (“LJ”) decision denying then-application for asylum, withholding of re *964 moval, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for substantial evidence, INS v. Elias- Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478 , 481 n. 1, 112 S.Ct. 812 , 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992), and we deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s finding that Karim failed to establish that his experiences in Indonesia rose to the level of persecution, see Nagoulko v. INS, 333 F.3d 1012, 1016-17 (9th Cir.2003), and the IJ’s finding that Karim failed to establish he was harmed by persons that the government is unable or unwilling to control, see Castro-Perez v. Gonzales, 409 F.3d 1069, 1072 (9th Cir.2005). In addition, even as a member of a disfavored group, Karim did not demonstrate a well-founded fear of future persecution because he failed to show sufficient individualized risk of persecution. Cf. Sael v. Ashcroft, 386 F.3d 922, 927-28 (9th Cir.2004).…
