NOTES:

N1     Please refer to the Company's announcement of 30/03/01.

N2     Bonus Issue

N3     Date of transaction : 03/04/01 - 06/04/01

N4     Please refer to the Company's announcement of 02/04/01.

N5     British Telecommunications Plc ("BT Plc") originally had an interest
       in the shares of SmarTone Telecommunications Holdings Limited
       ("SmarTone") through its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, BT Asia
       Pacific Investments Limited ("BTAP").

       On 18 November 1999, BT Holdings Limited ("BTH") and BT (Interna-
       tional) Holdings Limited ("BTIH") were interposed between BT Plc and
       BTAP when BT Plc transferred its entire shareholding in BTAP to BTIH.
       BTIH is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of BTH, which is in turn a
       direct wholly-owned subsidiary of BT Plc.  BTIH thereby acquired an
       interest in the SmarTone shares registered in the name of BTAP on 18
       November 1999, but inadvertently omitted to give notification of its
       interest under the Securities (Disclosure of Interests) Ordinance.

       BTAP is now in liquidation and on 30 March 2001, transferred its
       entire shareholding in SmarTone to BTIH by way of distribution of
       assets in specie upon commencement of winding-up.  Accordingly, BTIH
       became the registered holder of 121,280,526 SmarTone shares on 30
       March 2001, instead of holding an interest in the 121,280,526
       SmarTone shares through BTAP.  There is, therefore, no change in
       the number of SmarTone shares in which BTIH is interested.

       At all material times, BT Plc remains the ultimate owner of the
       121,280,526 SmarTone shares, and BTH, BTIH and BTAP are merely the
       vehicles through which BT Plc holds these SmarTone shares.

N6     Acquisitions were made from 03/04/01 to 04/04/01 at prices ranging
       from RM3.767 to RM3.939 per share.

N7     Acquisitions were made from 30/03/01 to 03/04/01 at prices ranging
       from $5.45 to $5.65 per share.

N8     Date of transaction : 02/04/01 - 06/04/01

N9     Acquisitions were made from 02/04/01 to 06/04/01 at prices ranging
       from $1.12 to $1.15 per share.

N10    Consideration per unit : $3.60 - $3.70

N11    On 2nd April 2001, UBS Warburg, a business group of UBS AG ("UBS
       Warburg") acquired a notifiable interest in the ordinary shares
       ("PCCW Shares") in the issued share capital of Cable and Wireless
       (Far East) Limited which (together with its interest in PCCW Shares
       acquired prior to 2nd April 2001) amounted to 3,285,099,270 PCCW
       Shares representing 14.8% of PCCW's issued share capital.

       The above notifiable interest arose in connection with the following:

       (a)  On 2nd April 2001, UBS Warburg, in connection with the Cable and
       Wireless plc US$1,504,331,000 Zero Coupon Exchangeable Bonds due 2003
       ("Bonds") exchangeable into PCCW Shares, entered into call options
       with Cable and Wireless (Far East) Limited in relation to
       3,259,384,610 PCCW Shares representing approximately 14.7% of
       the issued share capital of PCCW.  The call options are in respect
       of an amount of PCCW shares equal to the PCCW Shares underlying the
       Bonds.

       (b)  UBS Warburg also has an interest arising under an underwriting
       commitment in respect of the Bonds that means it has a conditional
       interest in the PCCW Shares underlying the Bonds.  Any exercise of
       the exchange right in relation to the Bonds will be reflected in the
       call option arrangements such that at no time will UBS Warburg be
       interested in more than 3,259,384,610 PCCW Shares in aggregate under
       these arrangements.

       (c)  As of 2nd April 2001, UBS Warburg was separately interested in
       25,714,660 PCCW Shares unrelated to the above arrangements.

N12    1.  Cable and Wireless (Far East) Limited ("CWFE") is the beneficial
       owner of 3,259,384,610 ordinary shares in the issued share capital of
       Pacific Century CyberWorks Limited ("PCCW");

       2.  By virtue of the direct or indirect ownership of 100% of CWFE's
       issued share capital, Cable and Wireless plc ("C&W") and its wholly
       owned subsidiary Cable and Wireless (Investments) Limited ("CWIL")
       (together with CWFE, "C&W Group") each of C&W and CWIL is deemed under
       Section 8 of the Ordinance to be interested in the shares of PCCW in
       which CWFE is interested for the purpose of this Ordinance.

       3.  On 2nd April 2001, CWFE granted to C&W a call option over
       3,259,384,610 ordinary shares in the issued share capital of PCCW
       (which is the same total number of shares in PCCW as referred to in
       paragraph 1 above).  Under Section 13(5) of the Ordinance, C&W is
       treated as having an interest in the value of PCCW shares to which the
       call option relates.

       4.  On 2nd April 2001, CWFE granted to UBS AG ("UBS") call options
       over 3,259,384,610 PCCW shares subject to the arrangements described
       in paragraph 5 below.  Under the terms of the call options, if any
       amendment is made to the number of options granted by UBS to CWFE
       under the options referred to in paragraph 5, a corresponding amend-
       ment will be deemed to have been made to the number of options
       granted to UBS hereto.

       5.  On 2nd April 2001, UBS granted to CWFE call options over
       3,259,384,610 PCCW shares.  Under the terms of these call options,
       UBS has granted unconditional call options over 1,629,692,305 PCCW
       shares which requires notification under Section 13 of the Ordinance
       and call options over a further 1,629,692,305 PCCW shares conditional
       upon obtaining consent from CWFE such consent not be unreasonably with-
       held or delayed.

       6.  On 2nd April 2001, CWFE deposited 3,243,767,733 shares in PCCW in
       the Central Clearing and Settlement System and Central Registration
       has informed the Company that these shares had been registered in the
       name of HKSCC Nominees Limited.  However, while there is a change of
       particulars requiring notification under Section 7 of the Ordinance,
       there is no change in the beneficial ownership of these shares.

       7.  On 2nd April, 2001, UBS exercised a call option (referred to in
       paragraph 4 above) over 1,600,000,000 shares held by CWFE with the
       result that the number of PCCW shares on which CWFE is the beneficial
       owner being reduced to 1,659,384,610.
