the agency’s factual findings. Wakkary v. Holder, 558 F.3d 1049, 1056 (9th Cir.
2009). We deny the petition for review.
David claims he will more likely than not face future persecution in
Indonesia. Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that, even
under a disfavored group analysis, David failed to show sufficient individualized
risk to establish it is more likely than not he would be persecuted if removed to
Indonesia. See Halim v. Holder, 590 F.3d 971, 978-79 (9th Cir. 2009); see also
Wakkary, 558 F.3d at 1066 (“[a]n applicant for withholding of removal will need
to adduce a considerably larger quantum of individualized-risk evidence to prevail
than would an asylum applicant”). We reject David’s contention that the agency
ignored his arguments related to imputed political opinion. The record does not
compel the conclusion that Chinese Christians face a pattern and practice of
persecution in Indonesia. See Wakkary, 558 F.3d at 1061. Accordingly, David’s
withholding of removal claim fails.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
