PLA "Mulberry Harbour"

So this is what a Mulberry, temporary portable harbour (link) looks like.  Of course, having a civilian Ro-Ro STUFT-ed (Ships Taken Up From Trade) in the background is really icing on the cake.    The question of why the PLA would require such a temporary harbor, say 110 kilometers east of Fujian, your guess is as good as mine.
