The Global Labor Strategies, who invited professor Liu to the US, has there latest report on the influence of US companies on China's labor law available here in a pdf-file. A thorough overview can also be found at the Harvard Law&Policies Review. It conclusion:
Of course, the ACFTU [the Chinese trade union] will not overhaul itself overnight. But, similarly, merely passing new laws will not cause instantaneous improvements either. The international labor movement should have a multi-pronged approach to advancing the labor situation in China, an important part of which focuses on better educating, organizing, and empowering workers to translate legal rights into meaningful changes on the factory floor.
