   MEMORANDUM

Baocai Li, a native and citizen of China, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ affirmance of an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) denial of his application for asylum, withholding of removal, and for relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, Chebchoub v. INS, 257 F.3d 1038, 1042 (9th Cir.2001), and we deny the petition.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s adverse credibility decision based on an inconsistency between petitioner’s testimony and application regarding the nature of the information that the Chinese government told petitioner to provide regarding his Malaysian employer. See id. at 1043-45. His asylum claim is accordingly denied.

Because petitioner fails to demonstrate that he is eligible for asylum, it follows that he did not satisfy the more stringent standard for withholding of removal. See Farah v. Ashcroft, 348 F.3d 1153,1156 (9th Cir.2003).

Because petitioner’s CAT claim is based on the same evidence as his asylum claim, petitioner is ineligible for CAT relief as well. See id. at 1156-57.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
