IPO Central points out that Pacific Internet PCNTF - the leading Internet Service Provider ISP in Singapore, is scheduled to go public
this week. PCNTF,which is expected to rocketfrom its $13-15 may have been pushed back till next week but just in case Songwire
thought it would be prudent to dig up other foreign ISPs trading publicly in the US.
Among them Australian OZEMY Ozemail, Globix GBIX, which is expanding by opening an office in London and speculative penny
play Xin Net XNET in China.
But one small cap with sterling partner connections including Compaq, MCI/Worldcom and German electronics giant Seimans may be
the one to watch.
Telepartner A/S, TPARY is a Scandinavian company that seems to have its eyes focused clearly on the internet. TPARY has partnered
with MCI/Worldcom to offer a broad range of telephony, Internet and related services in Denmark, Norway and Sweden in close
cooperation with MCI WorldCom and its Internet subsidiary UUnet. The new agreement gives TPARY subsidiary Primaerdata A/S the
opportunity to offer the Norwegian business community access to one of the largest Internet backbones with more than 1,000
locations worldwide, which was not previously available to Norwegian business. biz.yahoo.com

quietly opened an internet mall 909.dk and a European search engine Webguiden webguiden.dk in
conjunction with and co-branded by Compaq CPQ -
