From the link I posted here -- http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2977066:
The patent reform bill of 2007, which the current bill closely resembles[citation needed], was analyzed by the Deputy Director of IP division of Beijing High People's Court, Senior Judge, and he found that that the bill "... is friendlier to the infringers than to the patentees in general as it will make the patent less reliable, easier to be challenged and cheaper to be infringed. It is not bad news for developing countries which have fewer patents. Many of the Chinese companies are not patent owners in the U.S. market and their products are often excluded from the market because of patent infringement accusations. This bill will give the companies from developing countries more freedom and flexibility to challenge the relative US patent for doing business in US and make it less costly to infringe."
