It took Faith Hong about a half-hour to run through a century of history and a lifetime of propaganda.

That is her mission as a volunteer at the Taipei 228 Memorial Museum, where she guided her visitors from China through the somber displays, describing the events that set off the killing in 1947 of as many as 28,000 people.

DHARAMSHALA, May 24: A new report on China has painted a grim picture of the world’s most populous country’s human rights record and revealed that Chinese authorities in Tibet continue to repress the fundamental rights of the Tibetan people.
