PER CURIAM:

          Jemmy Fersn Sekeon and Steven Hennry Sekeon, brothers,

are natives and citizens of Indonesia.     The Sekeons petition for

review of a decision by the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board)

affirming the immigration judge’s order denying their request for

asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention

Against Torture.*   They claim that the Board erred in affirming the

immigration judge’s denial of their applications for withholding of

removal. “To qualify for withholding of removal, a petitioner must

show that he faces a clear probability of persecution because of

his race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social

group, or political opinion.”   Rusu v. INS, 296 F.3d 316, 324 n.13

(4th Cir. 2002) (citing INS v. Stevic, 467 U.S. 407, 430 (1984)).

Based on our review of the record, we find that substantial

evidence supports the Board’s decision that the Sekeons have failed

to meet this standard.      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




     *
      The Sekeons do not challenge the Board’s denial of the asylum
claim as untimely or the denial of protection under the Convention
Against Torture.
