Green vitality in Truong Sa

In Truong Sa, all the vegetable gardens with all kinds of vegetables, melons, gourds, and pumpkins brought from the mainland are carefully covered to prevent wind, rain, and storms. The soil for growing vegetables is also carefully brought by the island soldiers from all the countrysides of the provinces and cities across the country. Vegetables grow lushly on the rocky islands and even on the highest floor of the DK1 rig.
