BRASIL TELECOM IS ONCE AGAIN ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE MARKET

Brazil, Brasília, September 15, 2005 – Brasil Telecom is pleased to inform to the market in general two significant accomplishments.

In IDG Brasil’s journal, ComputerWorld, special edition “100 Maiores de TELECOM 2005 – ComputerWorld” (Top 100 Telecom Companies in 2005), Brasil Telecom was picked, among 200 companies, as the leading company of the year in the following segments: Domestic Long Distance, Intelligent Services (0800/0500/0300) and Corporate Data Communications.

We also have another reason to be proud. In Institutional Investor Research Group –IIRG’s press release, disclosed on September 13, Brasil Telecom’s Investor Relations team was considered, by research among 59 sell side analysts, the second best in the Latin American telecommunications sector.

These acknowledgements prove the correctness of Brasil Telecom’s strategy and our commitment to transparency and information flow towards shareholders and investors.
