PER CURIAM:
Fnu Amelia, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions
for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
affirming without opinion the Immigration Judge’s denial of her
applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection
under the Convention Against Torture.*
To obtain reversal of a determination denying eligibility
for relief, an alien “must show that the evidence he presented was
so compelling that no reasonable factfinder could fail to find the
requisite fear of persecution.” INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S.
478, 483-84 (1992). We have reviewed the evidence of record and
conclude that Amelia fails to show that the evidence compels a
contrary result. Having failed to qualify for asylum, Amelia
cannot meet the higher standard to qualify for withholding of
removal. Chen v. INS, 195 F.3d 198, 205 (4th Cir. 1999); INS v.
Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. 421, 430 (1987).
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
*
Amelia does not challenge the finding that she failed to
qualify for protection under the Convention Against Torture.
