       Re:     Amendment to Application of China Mobile International (USA) Inc. for
               International Section 214 Authority, FCC File No. ITC-214-20110901-00289

Dear Ms. Dortch:

        Pursuant to 47 C.F.R. § 63.21(a), China Mobile International (USA) Inc. (“CMIUSA”),
through its counsel, files a minor amendment to its long-pending application for global facilities-
based and global resale international Section 214 authority, originally filed on September 1,
2011. Specifically, CMIUSA amends its responses to Questions 11 and 14 of the Commission’s
International Section 214 Authorization application form.

        First, CMIUSA updates its foreign affiliate information and associated certifications.
Second, CMIUSA amends its application to reflect the fact that CMIUSA’s immediate parent
company, China Mobile International Limited (“CMI”) has transferred its entire interest in
CMIUSA to another CMI subsidiary, China Mobile International (UK) Limited (“CMIUK”).
CMIUK now holds a 100-percent direct interest in CMIUSA, as reflected in the Revised
Attachment 2 and associated chart in the Revised Exhibit A. Third, CMIUSA discloses a new
interlocking directorate.

       Should you have any questions, please contact Kent Bressie by telephone at +1 202 730
1337 or by e-mail at kbressie@hwglaw.com.

                                             Respectfully submitted,


                                             Kent D. Bressie

                                         REVISED ATTACHMENT 2

              Application of China Mobile International (USA) Inc. for Authority to Provide
               International Facilities-Based and Resold Services to All International Points


    Answer to Question 11:

    China Mobile International (USA) Inc. (“CMIUSA”) provides the following supplementary
    information and certifications as required by 47 C.F.R. § 63.18(i) through (k) and (m):

        (i)       By signature in the attached certification, CMIUSA certifies that in addition to the
                  affiliations disclosed in its original application, it is affiliated with additional foreign
                  carriers in Germany, Japan, and Singapore.

        (j)       By the signature in the attached certification, CMIUSA certifies that it seeks to
                  provide international telecommunications services to all international points (except
                  those points on the Commission’s exclusion list), including the destination countries
                  in which it is affiliated with the following foreign carriers (in addition to those listed
                  in its original application):

                      Destination Country                           Foreign Affiliate
                    Germany                        China Mobile International (Germany) GmbH
                    Japan                          China Mobile International KK
                    Singapore                      China Mobile International (Singapore) Pte. Ltd.

        (k)       By the signature in the attached certification, CMIUSA certifies that Germany, Japan,
                  and Singapore is each a WTO member country.1

        (m)       Each of the foreign-carrier affiliates listed in response to 47 C.F.R. § 63.18(j) is a
                  newly-established carrier starting with negligible market share in the respective
                  international transport and local access markets of Germany, Japan, and Singapore.
                  These affiliations therefore pose no risk to competition on the respective U.S.-
                  international routes and qualify for presumptive non-dominant treatment pursuant to
                  47 C.F.R. §§ 63.10(a)(3) and 63.12(c)(ii). Moreover, none of these foreign-carrier
                  affiliates appears on the Commission’s list of foreign carriers presumed to have
                  market power in foreign destination markets.2
