VIJALight® lanterns in the Truong Sa (Spratly) Islands

Since 2012, VIJALight® lanterns have been chosen by the Vietnam People's Navy Command and installed on islands of the Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago:

Song Tu Tay island, Da Tay A, Da Tay C, Toc Tan A, Da Dong A, Da Dong B, Da Dong C, Thuyen Chai A, Thuyen Chai C, Phan Vinh A island and Tien Nu reef.

Here, VIJALight® lanterns are not just marine signals that guide ships: they carry a meaningful name, Vietnam's sovereignty lights.

Conditions in the Truong Sa archipelago are harsh: intense heat, high waves and strong winds. Even on the tarpaulins covering equipment, sea spray dries into crystals of white salt.

After more than two years in that environment, VIJALight® lanterns have proved their quality and earned their name: Vietnam's sovereignty lights.
