   MEMORANDUM

Stenly Laloan Rantung, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order denying his motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.

Rantung’s only argument is that his case should be remanded for the agency to assess his withholding of removal claim under the disfavored group analysis. We reject Rantung’s argument in light of our prior decision, Rantung v. Mukasey, 291 Fed.Appx. 859, (9th Cir. Sept. 10, 2008), in which this court applied the disfavored group analysis to Rantung’s withholding of removal claim and rejected his claim. Accordingly, we deny the petition for review.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
