United States Second Circuit

In a petition for review of the BIA's order denying petitioner's application for asylum, the petition is denied where the BIA adequately considered petitioner's claim that there was a pattern or practice of persecution of ethnic Chinese and Catholics in Indonesia, and its finding that no such pattern or practice existed was supported by substantial evidence.
