yodiwan, I think this is the article you are referring to, China's coming-out party impressed world, but had its costs. It isn't really that surprising, if you think about it. China is still a communist country with a terrible human rights history. The Soviet Union would not have done any better; they would have just covered it up better. The real tragedy is the attention it is getting in the media, which is basically none.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
