                   The Commission has recognized that increased competition in international

    markets is beneficial and that those markets will support additional carriers. Additional market

    entry will promote lower prices, innovative services, increased customer choice, and efficient

    utilization of telecommunications resources. PHOENIX expects to support these goals through

    the provision of high—quality, competitive international communications services. A grant of

    PHOENIX‘s application, therefore, will serve the public interest, convenience and necessity.
