Hi, we're China...we make up rules as we go along!

What a joke.  Agree with the poster who said Apple should move their manufacturing out of China.  

When you manufacture anything over there (or India for that matter), you're basically providing most of the work needed to allow your IP to get ganked. 

It's just a cultural thing. When you have an ancient civilization with over a billion people that all display visual homogeny, live in a collective and have relatively little individualism, it's no wonder creative IP and the work of others outside of such an environment carries any value.

Haha wait...

So a Chinese company steals just enough visual cues to make it look like an iPhone and remain legal, patents those minute differences, then sues the company it stole from initially for looking too much like its own product?

Classic.
