I thought it was odd, since we had already cleared security, but figured it was only done on US bound flights.
This happened to me in PEK about 2 years ago. I purchased a bottle of water for the long nonstop to EWR and when we boarded I discovered that all liquids had to be thrown away, even if they were purchased in the airport.
