Agreement Marks First Reliable, High-Speed Internet Connectivity via

Satellite for Customers of Vietnam Datacommunications Company

Teleglobe Communications Corporation (BCE Teleglobe)(NYSE, TSE: BCE), a leading provider of global communications and e-Business services, today announced it has established a connection with Vietnam's largest Internet Service Provider to offer Internet connectivity to its IP backbone in North America by satellite.

The agreement with the state-owned Vietnam Datacommunications Company (VDC) is the first time VDC has had direct satellite connectivity with a North American Internet backbone provider, enabling high-speed communications between Vietnam and North America.

BCE Teleglobe is providing VDC with a satellite connection between North America and Vietnam to its global high-speed network backbone through a dedicated high bandwidth connection. VDC is using the bandwidth to offer faster, more reliable Internet connections and international data transport to business and consumer customers in Vietnam.

"VDC represents BCE Teleglobe's continuing expansion into the Asia-Pacific market and our first foray into Vietnam," said Andrew Kwok, BCE Teleglobe's vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific. "BCE Teleglobe is delivering high-speed Internet connectivity to several other countries in the region, including Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and a number of Pacific Islands. VDC needed the most reliable and experienced provider for their growing business and consumer market and turned to BCE Teleglobe for this expertise."

BCE Teleglobe recently became the first global Internet backbone provider with the ability to offer IP services seamlessly over a multi-protocol label switched (MPLS) packet network.

"This agreement significantly reduces the complexity and cost of going through multiple international networks to secure intercontinental connectivity," said Vu Hoang Lien, director of VDC. "BCE Teleglobe's reputation as a sophisticated satellite services provider made them the logical choice for helping us provide reliable service between Vietnam and North America."
