Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
David Gakia Lahamendu, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") summary affirmance of an Immigration Judge's ("U") order denying his application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture ("CAT"). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, see Nagoulko v. INS, 333 F.3d 1012, 1015 (9th Cir.2003), and we deny the petition.
The record does not compel the conclusion that Lahamendu's untimely filing of his asylum application should be excused. See 8 C.F.R. § 208.4(a)(4)-(5). Accordingly, we deny the petition as to Lahamendu's asylum claim.
With regard to the claim for withholding of removal, substantial evidence supports the IJ's finding that Lahamendu has not demonstrated a clear probability of future persecution. See Lolong v. Gonzales, 484 F.3d 1173, 1179-81 (9th Cir.2007) (en banc) (petitioner failed to demonstrate the existence of a pattern and practice of persecution); Maroufi v. INS, 772 F.2d 597, 599-600 (9th Cir.1985) (petitioner failed to demonstrate that he would be singled out for future persecution).
Substantial evidence also supports the IJ's denial of CAT relief because Lahamendu did not show that it is more likely than not that he would be tortured if returned to Indonesia. See Singh v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 1100, 1113 (9th Cir.2006).
Finally, we deny Lahamendu's request to remand for review of evidence regarding current country conditions in Indonesia. If Lahamendu would like the IJ to review such evidence, he should file a motion to reopen with the BIA. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c); Malty v. Ashcroft, 381 F.3d 942, 944-47 (9th Cir.2004).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
