Juwono

MEMORANDUM **

Imelda Yulianti Hartono Juwono and her husband, Heriawan, natives and citizens of Indonesia, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ decision, summarily affirming an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) order denying their application for asylum, withholding of removal and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for substantial evidence, see Malhi v. INS, 336 F.3d 989, 992-93 (9th Cir.2003), and we deny the petition.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s finding that petitioners failed to demonstrate past persecution. See Singh v. INS, 134 F.3d 962, 970-71 (9th Cir.1998). Substantial evidence further supports the IJ’s finding that petitioners failed to establish a well-founded fear of future persecution, *642 because they failed to demonstrate the requisite individualized risk of persecution. Cf. Sael v. Ashcroft, 386 F.3d 922, 927 (9th Cir.2004). Accordingly, petitioners’ asylum claim fails.

Because petitioners cannot meet their burden to demonstrate eligibility for asylum, they necessarily fail to meet the more stringent standard for withholding of removal. See Mansour v. Ashcroft,…
