Can someone please explain this to ME ?

Just stumbled upon these domain names while checking out alexa rankings and after discussing about a simple domain name extractor with a friend of mine.

What do you think of these domains:

sina.com.cn & com.cn

Oh! Fine they are in chinese can't make out what those websites are all about but I would always think that sina is a sub-domain of com.cn (Not sure whether its the case here)

Now to add to the complexity I google and found these domain names too:

www.google.com.cn & www.com.cn

www.google.com.my & www.com.my

In both these cases IMHO the former would qualify to be a fourth level domain for the latter second level domain.

Am I right OR is there something I am missing here ?
