SHOUSONG CHI, Petitioner, v. LORETTA E. LYNCH, Attorney General, Respondent.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

Agency No. A097-873-131 MEMORANDUM On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Argued and Submitted October 19, 2016 Honolulu, Hawaii Before: WALLACE, FARRIS, and WATFORD, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. --------

Shousong Chi, a native and citizen of China, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's decision denying his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We review the agency's factual findings for substantial evidence. See Wakkary v. Holder, 558 F.3d 1049, 1056 (9th Cir. 2009). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the agency's conclusion that Chi did not establish that his past harm rose to the level of persecution. See Gu v. Gonzales, 454 F.3d 1014, 1020-21 (9th Cir. 2006). Substantial evidence also supports the agency's conclusion that Chi did not establish an objectively reasonable fear of future persecution. Id. at 1022. Thus, Chi's asylum and withholding of removal claims fail. See Zehatye v. Gonzales, 453 F.3d 1182, 1190 (9th Cir. 2006).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
