Item 1

PCCW Limited

(Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)
(Stock Code: 0008)

REDEMPTION OF TELSTRA NOTE
BY THE COMPANY

The Company and Telstra have agreed on May 26, 2005 that the Company will redeem the Telstra Note upon its scheduled maturity on June 30, 2005 for US$58,386,346.06 in cash, which is a 5% discount to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest as at June 30, 2005 of US$61,459,311.64.

Redemption of Telstra Note by the Company

The Company issued a US$190 million 5% mandatory convertible note due 2005 to Telstra on June 28, 2002 as part of the disposal of the Group’s 40% interest in Joint Venture (Bermuda) No. 2 Limited and such note is secured by the Group’s interest in Reach.

On April 15, 2003, the Company redeemed US$143 million of such note and issued as a replacement the Telstra Note with a face value of US$54,377,474.94, being the remaining amount of principal and accrued interest at that time.

Pursuant to the original terms and conditions of the Telstra Note, upon maturity on June 30, 2005, the sum of the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest will be mandatorily converted in full into such number of Shares to be determined based upon a conversion price determined by reference to the volume weighted average closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the 20 dealing days immediately preceding June 30, 2005 (i.e. the volume weighted average closing price from June 2, 2005 to June 29, 2005).

The Company and Telstra have agreed on May 26, 2005 that the Company will redeem the Telstra Note upon its scheduled maturity on June 30, 2005 for US$58,386,346.06 in cash, which is a 5% discount to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest as at June 30, 2005 of US$61,459,311.64, and not by the mandatory conversion into Shares. The terms and conditions of the redemption of the Telstra Note were determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and Telstra.
