• explaining that when a petitioner brings claims for both withholding of removal and asylum, we usually focus on the petitioner's asylum claim
• no persecution where, during 1998 riots, ethnic Chinese Indonesian was physically beaten, his motorcycle was set on fire, and his persecutors chanted at him, “kill Chinese”
• a single severe beating during riots, without other systematic mistreatment of comparable severity, support finding that the beating was an isolated event, not persecution
