Chinese citizen’s petition for review of BIA’s denial of his application for asylum is denied where: 1) petitioner never presented his “other resistance” argument to the BIA; 2) petitioner never argued before the BIA that his flight from China constituted other resistance to a coercive population control program; and 3) BIA did not abuse its discretion in refusing to remand for further factfinding.
