Google has never been able to catch Baidu in China, and has had to face the reality that the ad market is still very immature in China.
Yes there is a challenging regulatory environment and the Government has a tendency to have kneejerk reactions but it is a free-er market than it was 10 years ago and we need to keep pushing to help them mature.
If Google leaves it does so because they see it as a graceful exit in a market they have not succeeded. Rather see them fight the good fight.
