India Finally Opens
Telephony Market to
Competition and Global Plans to be There

FAIRFIELD, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 10, 2000--Global
Online India, Inc. trading under the symbol: GOLX, which launched its
mega Indian internet portal and started trading its stock publicly only two
months ago, has vowed to help India get ``Globally Linked'' to the rest
of the telephony world now that the Indian Government has just agreed
to open its telephony market to competition. In addition to its
international meta - hub portal Global Online India.com, GOLX is
planning on providing both internet access and global telephony services
to the over 1 billion people of the second largest population base on
earth.

GOLX's stock has been up over 1900% in the last eight weeks,
following a recent merger and a 200% stock dividend. `` This is not just
a ''concept company``, we have worked very hard to build and deploy
what we feel is truly the number one global internet portal in all of India
and now our focus will be on providing high speed, broadband internet
access and crystal clear, reliable telephony services in India as the
regulatory environment allows. India currently has a telephone density of
only 3 out of 100. That means that only 3 out of every 100 persons in
the country have access to a telephone. Internet access is so low, it is
estimated that only 1/3 of 1% of the people of India have directly enjoy
the benefits of the Internet,'' said Dr. Christopher W. Hartnett, Chairman
and founder of Global Online India.

``GOLX, through its parent companies Global Online International
(GOL) and USA Global Link, has a tradition of providing telephony
services that work and meet the unique demands of its 65,000
international customers in over 120 countries and territories. India is
going to be one of the world's major economic and cultural powerhouses
in the next few years once it gets ''Globally Linked``. That is our name,
that is our business, that is what we have been doing extremely well
around the world for the last 8 years. We were one of the very first
global telephone companies to provide telephony services internationally
and now that experience and know how is going to become laser
focused towards India. A great deal of all of our family of companies
attention, technology and resources will be allocated towards India over
the next two years. As the Indian market deregulates, which I'm happy
to say we are finally seeing major steps by the government in that
direction, we are going to be in that market in a major competitive way.
We want to provide to the people of India access to the goods and
services that they need in order fully take their golden seat at the world
economic table'', said Dr. Hartnett.

Global Online India (GOLX) is one of the premier providers of
e-commerce services and e-business solutions to the 1.0 million Internet

around the world through its meta-hub ``www.GOLindia.com''. This
