MEMORANDUM*


2
Soon Guan Lee and Sew Mooi Lee, natives and citizens of Malaysia, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' (BIA) denial of their applications for suspension of deportation under 8 U .S.C. § 1254(a).  Because the BIA's final order of deportation was entered on February 28, 1997, the transitional rules of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA) apply.  See Kalaw v. INS, 133 F.3d 1147, 1150 (9th Cir.1997).  The Lees argue that IIRIRA § 309(c)(4)(E), which deprives this court of jurisdiction to review the BIA's discretionary decision whether the Lees established the requisite extreme hardship, see Kalaw, 133 F.3d at 1152, does not bar consideration of their contention that the BIA erred in failing to consider the hardship their United States citizen child would suffer if they were to leave her in this country upon their deportation.  This argument lacks merit because the issue whether the BIA considered all relevant factors is a matter of discretion.  See Salcido-Salcido v. INS, No. 96-70683, 1998 WL 111262 at * 1 (9th Cir.1998) (per curiam) (BIA abuses its discretion when it fails properly to weigh hardship that will result from family separation).
