Propably it's the developers of these Apps that have chosen, for whatever reason, not to release them in every market.
I believe the reason may well be in Chinese legislation. I have heard some strange rumors about a new law in China that forbids importing games, or something to that effect (but I have not seen this in writing anywhere, so this information may be incorrect.) In any case, I am quite sure no developer would deliberately close out the Chinese market, and certainly Rovio would be more than happy to make Angry Birds available in every possible market.
