FUND SUMMARY

INVESTMENT SUMMARY

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

ADVISOR EMERGING ASIA FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR)'s principal investment
strategies include:

(small solid bullet) Normally investing primarily in equity and debt
securities of Asian emerging market issuers.

(small solid bullet) Normally investing at least 65% of total assets
in securities of Asian emerging market issuers.

(small solid bullet) Investing principally in equity securities.

(small solid bullet) Potentially investing up to 35% of total assets
in securities of companies (other than Asian emerging market issuers)
that derive, or will derive, a significant portion of their revenues
or profits from business in Asian countries generally, or debt
securities of governments of Asian countries or their agencies or
other political subdivisions (other than Asian emerging market
issuers).

(small solid bullet) Allocating investments across countries
considering the size of the market in each country relative to the
size of the markets in Asian countries with emerging markets as a
whole.

(small solid bullet) Using fundamental analysis of each issuer's
financial condition and industry position and market and economic
conditions to select investments.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

The fund is subject to the following principal investment risks:

(small solid bullet) STOCK MARKET VOLATILITY. Stock markets are
volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer,
political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Different
parts of the market can react differently to these developments.

(small solid bullet) INTEREST RATE CHANGES. Interest rate increases
can cause the price of a debt security to decrease.

(small solid bullet) FOREIGN EXPOSURE. Foreign markets, particularly
emerging markets, can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to
increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market or
economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S.
market. Emerging markets can be subject to greater social, economic,
regulatory and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.

(small solid bullet) GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION IN ASIA. Most Asian
economies are characterized by over-extension of credit, currency
devaluations, rising unemployment, decreased exports, and economic
recessions. International trade, government policy and political and
social stability significantly affect economic growth. The markets in
Asia can be extremely volatile.

(small solid bullet) ISSUER-SPECIFIC CHANGES. The value of an
individual security or particular type of security can be more
volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently
from the value of the market as a whole. Lower-quality debt
securities (those of less than investment-grade quality) can be more
volatile due to increased sensitivity to adverse issuer, political,
regulatory, market or economic developments.

In addition, the fund is considered non-diversified and can invest a
greater portion of assets in securities of individual issuers than a
diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single
issuer could cause greater fluctuations in share price than would
occur in a more diversified fund.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or
any other government agency.

When you sell your shares of the fund, they could be worth more or
less than what you paid for them.

PERFORMANCE

Prior to June 1 6 , 1999, the fund operated as Fidelity Advisor
Emerging Asia Fund, Inc. (Closed-End Fund), a closed-end fund
with the same investment objective and substantially similar
investment policies . On June 15, 1999, the Closed-End Fund was
reorganized as an open-end fund through a transfer of all of its
assets and liabilities to the fund. Shareholders of the Closed-End
Fund received Class A shares of the fund in exchange for their shares
of the Closed-End Fund. Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C shares
were not offered prior to June 16, 1999. The returns presented below
do not reflect Class A, Class T, Class B, or Class C total expenses.
If the effect of each class's total expenses was reflected, returns
may be lower than those shown because each class may have higher total
expenses than the Closed-End Fund.

The following information illustrates the changes in the Closed-End
Fund's performance from year to year and compares each class's
performance to the performance of a market index and an average of the
performance of similar funds over various periods of time. Returns are
based on past results and are not an indication of future
performance.

YEAR-BY-YEAR RETURNS

The returns in the chart do not include the effect of Class A's or
Class T's front-end sales charge or Class B's or Class C's contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). If the effect of the sales charge was
reflected, returns would be lower than those shown.

DURING THE PERIODS SHOWN IN THE CHART FOR THE CLOSED-END FUND ,
THE HIGHEST RETURN FOR A QUARTER WAS 32.21 % (QUARTER ENDING
DECEMBER 31, 1998 ) AND THE LOWEST RETURN FOR A QUARTER WAS
-27.62 % (QUARTER ENDING JUNE 30, 1998 ).

THE YEAR-TO-DATE RETURN AS OF JUNE 30, 1999 FOR CLASS A OF THE FUND
WAS 45.61%. CLASS A'S YEAR-TO-DATE RETURN REFLECTS THE PERFORMANCE OF
THE CLOSED-END FUND THROUGH JUNE 15, 1999 (THE DATE OF THE FUND'S
REORGANIZATION) AND THE PERFORMANCE OF CLASS A FOR THE PERIOD
BEGINNING JUNE 16, 1999 TO JUNE 30, 1999. THE CLOSED-END FUND HAD NO
12B-1 FEE. IF CLASS A'S TOTAL EXPENSES, INCLUDING ITS 0.25% 12B-1 FEE,
HAD BEEN REFLECTED IN THE CLOSED-END FUND'S PERFORMANCE, CLASS A'S
YEAR-TO-DATE RETURN WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.

FUND BASICS

INVESTMENT DETAILS

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

ADVISOR EMERGING ASIA FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

FMR normally invests the fund's assets primarily in equity and debt
securities of Asian emerging market issuers. FMR normally invests at
least 65% of the fund's total assets in securities of Asian emerging
market issuers. Asian emerging market issuers are those issuers
located in an Asian country with an emerging market. Asian countries
with emerging markets include Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea,
Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippines, the People's Republic of China,
Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, Burma, Laos and
Cambodia. FMR intends to invest the fund's assets principally in
equity securities.

FMR may invest up to 35% of the fund's total assets in (i) securities
of companies (other than Asian emerging market issuers) that derive,
or will derive, a significant portion of their revenues or profits
from business in Asian countries generally or (ii) debt securities of
governments of Asian countries or their agencies or other political
subdivisions (other than Asian emerging market issuers).

FMR normally diversifies the fund's investments across different Asian
countries with emerging markets. In allocating the fund's investments
across countries, FMR will consider the size of the market in each
country relative to the size of the markets in Asian countries with
emerging markets as a whole.

Because the fund is considered non-diversified, FMR may invest a
significant percentage of the fund's assets in a single issuer.

In buying and selling securities for the fund, FMR relies on
fundamental analysis of each issuer and its potential for success in
light of its current financial condition, its industry position, and
economic and market conditions. Factors considered include growth
potential, earnings estimates and management.

FMR may lend the fund's securities to broker-dealers or other
institutions to earn income for the fund.

FMR may use various techniques, such as buying and selling futures
contracts, to increase or decrease the fund's exposure to changing
security prices or other factors that affect security values. If FMR's
strategies do not work as intended, the fund may not achieve its
objective.

DESCRIPTION OF PRINCIPAL SECURITY TYPES

EQUITY SECURITIES represent an ownership interest, or the right to
acquire an ownership interest, in an issuer. Different types of equity
securities provide different voting and dividend rights and priority
in the event of the bankruptcy of the issuer. Equity securities
include common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible securities and
warrants.

DEBT SECURITIES are used by issuers to borrow money. The issuer
usually pays a fixed, variable , or floating rate of interest,
and must repay the amount borrowed at the maturity of the security.
Some debt securities, such as zero coupon bonds, do not pay current
interest but are sold at a discount from their face values. Debt
securities include corporate bonds, government securities, and
mortgage and other asset-backed securities.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Many factors affect the fund's performance. The fund's share price
changes daily based on changes in market conditions and interest rates
and in response to other economic, political , or financial
developments. The fund's reaction to these developments will be
affected by the types of the securities in which the fund invests, the
financial condition, industry and economic sector, and geographic
location of an issuer, and the fund's level of investment in the
securities of that issuer. Because FMR concentrates the fund's
investments in a particular group of countries, the fund's performance
is expected to be closely tied to economic and political conditions
within that group of countries and to be more volatile than the
performance of more geographically diversified funds. In addition,
because FMR may invest a significant percentage of the fund's assets
in a single issuer, the fund's performance could be closely tied to
the market value of that one issuer and could be more volatile than
the performance of more diversified funds. When you sell your shares
of the fund, they could be worth more or less than what you paid for
them.

The following factors may significantly affect the fund's performance:

STOCK MARKET VOLATILITY. The value of equity securities fluctuates in
response to issuer, political, market , and economic
developments. In the short term, equity prices can fluctuate
dramatically in response to these developments. Different parts of the
market and different types of equity securities can react differently
to these developments. For example, large cap stocks can react
differently from small cap stocks, and "growth" stocks can
react differently from "value" stocks. Issuer,
political , or economic developments can affect a single issuer,
issuers within an industry or economic sector or geographic region, or
the market as a whole.

INTEREST RATE CHANGES. Debt securities have varying levels of
sensitivity to changes in interest rates. In general, the price of a
debt security can fall when interest rates rise and can rise when
interest rates fall. Securities with longer maturities and mortgage
securities can be more sensitive to interest rate changes.

FOREIGN EXPOSURE. Foreign securities, foreign currencies, and
securities issued by U.S. entities with substantial foreign operations
can involve additional risks relating to political, economic ,
or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include
fluctuations in foreign currencies; withholding or other taxes;
trading, settlement, custodial , and other operational risks;
and the less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of
some foreign markets. For example, many foreign countries are less
prepared than the United States to properly process and calculate
information related to dates from and after January 1, 2000, which
could result in difficulty pricing foreign investments and failure by
foreign issuers to pay timely dividends, interest , or
principal. All of these factors can make foreign investments,
especially those in emerging markets, more volatile and potentially
less liquid than U.S. investments. In addition, foreign markets can
perform differently than the U.S. market.

Investing in emerging markets involves risks in addition to and
greater than those generally associated with investing in more
developed foreign markets. The extent of economic development;
political stability; market depth, infrastructure , and
capitalization; and regulatory oversight can be less than in
more developed markets. Emerging market economies can be subject to
greater social, economic, regulatory , and political
uncertainties. All of these factors can make emerging market
securities more volatile and potentially less liquid than securities
issued in more developed markets.

ASIA. Asia includes countries in all stages of economic development,
from the highly developed economy of Japan to the emerging market
economy of the People's Republic of China. Most Asian economies are
characterized by over-extension of credit, currency devaluations,
rising unemployment, decreased exports, and economic recessions.
Currency devaluations in any one country can have a significant
effect on the entire region. Recently, the markets in each Asian
country have suffered significant downturns as well as significant
volatility. Increased political and social unrest in some or all Asian
countries could cause further economic and market uncertainty.

ISSUER-SPECIFIC CHANGES. Changes in the financial condition of an
issuer, changes in specific economic or political conditions that
affect a particular type of security or issuer, and changes in general
economic or political conditions can affect the credit quality or
value of an issuer's securities. The value of securities of smaller,
less well-known issuers can be more volatile than that of larger
issuers. Lower-quality debt securities (those of less than
investment-grade quality) tend to be more sensitive to these changes
than higher-quality debt securities.

Lower-quality debt securities involve greater risk of default or price
changes due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer. The value
of lower-quality debt securities often fluctuates in response to
company, political , or economic developments and can decline
significantly over short periods of time or during periods of general
or regional economic difficulty.

In response to market, economic, political , or other
conditions, FMR may temporarily use a different investment strategy
for defensive purposes. If FMR does so, different factors could affect
the fund's performance and the fund may not achieve its investment
objective.

FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT POLICIES

The policy discussed below is fundamental, that is, subject to change
only by shareholder approval.

ADVISOR EMERGING ASIA FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation.

VALUING SHARES

The fund is open for business each day the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) is open.

A class's net asset value per share (NAV) is the value of a single
share. Fidelity(registered trademark) normally calculates each class's
NAV as of the close of business of the NYSE, normally 4:00 p.m.
Eastern time. However, NAV may be calculated earlier if trading on the
NYSE is restricted or as permitted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). The fund's assets are valued as of this time for the
purpose of computing each class's NAV.

To the extent that the fund's assets are traded in other markets on
days when the NYSE is closed, the value of the fund's assets may be
affected on days when the fund is not open for business. In addition,
trading in some of the fund's assets may not occur on days when the
fund is open for business.

The fund's assets are valued primarily on the basis of market
quotations. Certain short-term securities are valued on the basis of
amortized cost. If market quotations are not readily available for a
security or if a security's value has been materially affected by
events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which
the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or
market), that security may be valued by another method that the Board
of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value. A security's
valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining
value.

BUYING SHARES

The price to buy one share of Class A or Class T is the class's
offering price or the class's NAV, depending on whether you pay a
front-end sales charge.

For Class B and Class C, the price to buy one share is the class's
NAV. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales
charge, but may be subject to a CDSC upon redemption.

If you pay a front-end sales charge, your price will be Class A's or
Class T's offering price. When you buy Class A or Class T shares at
the offering price, Fidelity deducts the appropriate sales charge and
invests the rest in Class A or Class T shares of the fund. If you
qualify for a front-end sales charge waiver, your price will be Class
A's or Class T's NAV.

The offering price of Class A or Class T is its NAV divided by the
difference between one and the applicable front-end sales charge
percentage. Class A has a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75% of
the offering price. Class T has a maximum front-end sales charge of
3.50% of the offering price.

Your shares will be bought at the next offering price or NAV, as
applicable, calculated after your order is received in proper form.

It is the responsibility of your investment professional to transmit
your order to buy shares to Fidelity before the close of business on
the day you place your order.

Short-term or excessive trading into and out of the fund may harm
performance by disrupting portfolio management strategies and by
increasing expenses. Accordingly, the fund may reject any purchase
orders, including exchanges, particularly from market timers or
investors who, in FMR's opinion, have a pattern of short-term or
excessive trading or whose trading has been or may be disruptive to
the fund. For these purposes, FMR may consider an investor's trading
history in the fund or other Fidelity funds, and accounts under common
ownership or control.

The fund may stop offering shares completely or may offer shares only
on a limited basis, for a period of time or permanently.

When you place an order to buy shares, note the following:

(small solid bullet) All of your purchases must be made in U.S.
dollars and checks must be drawn on U.S. banks.

(small solid bullet) Fidelity does not accept cash.

(small solid bullet) When making a purchase with more than one check,
each check must have a value of at least $50.

(small solid bullet) Fidelity reserves the right to limit the number
of checks processed at one time.

(small solid bullet) Fidelity must receive payment within three
business days after an order for shares is placed; otherwise your
purchase order may be canceled and you could be liable for any losses
or fees the fund or Fidelity has incurred.

(small solid bullet) If your check does not clear, your purchase will
be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees the fund or
Fidelity has incurred.

Shares can be bought or sold through investment professionals using an
automated order placement and settlement system that guarantees
payment for orders on a specified date.

Certain financial institutions that meet creditworthiness criteria
established by Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC) may enter
confirmed purchase orders on behalf of customers by phone, with
payment to follow no later than close of business on the next business
day. If payment is not received by that time, the order will be
canceled and the financial institution will be liable for any losses.

SELLING SHARES

The price to sell one share of each class is the class's NAV, minus
the redemption fee (short-term trading fee), if applicable, and
any applicable CDSC.

The fund will deduct a short-term trading fee of 4.00% from the
redemption amount if you sell Class A shares received in
connection with the reorganization of the Closed-End Fund after
holding them less than 180 days after June 15, 1999 . This fee
is paid to the fund rather than Fidelity, and is designed to offset
the brokerage commissions, market impact, and other costs associated
with fluctuations in fund asset levels and cash flow caused by
short-term shareholder trading.

If appropriate to protect shareholders, the fund may impose a trading
fee on other redemptions from the fund.

Any applicable contingent deferred sales charge is calculated based on
your original redemption amount.

Your shares will be sold at the next NAV calculated after your order
is received in proper form, minus the short-term trading fee, if
applicable, and any applicable CDSC.

It is the responsibility of your investment professional to transmit
your order to sell shares to Fidelity before the close of business on
the day you place your order.

Certain requests must include a signature guarantee. It is designed to
protect you and Fidelity from fraud. Your request must be made in
writing and include a signature guarantee if any of the following
situations apply:

(small solid bullet) You wish to sell more than $100,000 worth of
shares;

(small solid bullet) Your account registration has changed within the
last 30 days;

(small solid bullet) The check is being mailed to a different address
than the one on your account (record address);

(small solid bullet) The check is being made payable to someone other
than the account owner; or

(small solid bullet) The redemption proceeds are being transferred to
a Fidelity account with a different registration.

You should be able to obtain a signature guarantee from a bank,
broker, dealer, credit union (if authorized under state law),
securities exchange or association, clearing agency, or savings
association. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.

When you place an order to sell shares, note the following:

(small solid bullet) If you are selling some but not all of your
shares, leave at least $1,000 worth of shares in the account to keep
it open, except accounts not subject to account minimums.

(small solid bullet) Normally, Fidelity will process redemptions by
the next business day, but Fidelity may take up to seven days to
process redemptions if making immediate payment would adversely affect
the fund.

(small solid bullet) Redemption proceeds (other than exchanges) may be
delayed until money from prior purchases sufficient to cover your
redemption has been received and collected. This can take up to seven
business days after a purchase.

(small solid bullet) Redemptions may be suspended or payment dates
postponed when the NYSE is closed (other than weekends or holidays),
when trading on the NYSE is restricted, or as permitted by the SEC.

(small solid bullet) Redemption proceeds may be paid in securities or
other assets rather than in cash if the Board of Trustees determines
it is in the best interests of the fund.

(small solid bullet) You will not receive interest on amounts
represented by uncashed redemption checks.

AUTOMATIC INVESTMENT AND WITHDRAWAL PROGRAMS. Fidelity offers
convenient services that let you automatically transfer money into
your account, between accounts, or out of your account. While
automatic investment programs do not guarantee a profit and will not

excellent way to invest for retirement, a home, educational expenses,

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS

The fund earns dividends, interest, and other income from its
investments, and distributes this income (less expenses) to
shareholders as dividends. The fund also realizes capital gains from
its investments, and distributes these gains (less any losses) to
shareholders as capital gain distributions.

The fund normally pays dividends and capital gain distributions in
December.

DISTRIBUTION OPTIONS

When you open an account, specify on your application how you want to
receive your distributions. The following options may be available for
each class's distributions:

1. REINVESTMENT OPTION. Your dividends and capital gain distributions
will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same
class of the fund. If you do not indicate a choice on your
application, you will be assigned this option.

2. INCOME-EARNED OPTION. Your capital gain distributions will be
automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same class of the
fund. Your dividends will be paid in cash.

3. CASH OPTION. Your dividends and capital gain distributions will be
paid in cash.

4. DIRECTED DIVIDENDS(registered trademark) OPTION. Your dividends
will be automatically invested in the same class of shares of another
identically registered Fidelity Advisor fund or shares of certain
identically registered Fidelity funds. Your capital gain distributions
will be automatically invested in the same class of shares of another
identically registered Fidelity Advisor fund or shares of certain
identically registered Fidelity funds, automatically reinvested in
additional shares of the same class of the fund, or paid in cash.

Not all distribution options are available for every account. If the
option you prefer is not listed on your account application, or if you
want to change your current option, contact your investment
professional directly or call Fidelity.

If you elect to receive distributions paid in cash by check and the
U.S. Postal Service does not deliver your checks, your distribution
option may be converted to the Reinvestment Option. You will not
receive interest on amounts represented by uncashed distribution
checks.

TAX CONSEQUENCES

As with any investment, your investment in the fund could have tax
consequences for you. If you are not investing through a
tax-advantaged retirement account, you should consider these tax
consequences.

TAXES ON DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions you receive from the fund are
subject to federal income tax, and may also be subject to state or
local taxes.

For federal tax purposes, the fund's dividends and distributions of
short-term capital gains are taxable to you as ordinary income. The
fund's distributions of long-term capital gains are taxable to you
generally as capital gains.

If you buy shares when a fund has realized but not yet distributed
income or capital gains, you will be "buying a dividend" by paying the
full price for the shares and then receiving a portion of the price
back in the form of a taxable distribution.

Any taxable distributions you receive from the fund will normally be
taxable to you when you receive them, regardless of your distribution
option.

TAXES ON TRANSACTIONS. Your redemptions, including exchanges, may
result in a capital gain or loss for federal tax purposes. A capital
gain or loss on your investment in the fund is the difference between
the cost of your shares and the price you receive when you sell them.

From time to time a manager, analyst , or other Fidelity
employee may express views regarding a particular company, security,
industry or market sector. The views expressed by any such person are
the views of only that individual as of the time expressed and do not
necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the
Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any
time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any
responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on

procedures for personal investing and restricts certain transactions.

The fund pays a management fee to FMR. The management fee is

twelve, and multiplying the result by the fund's average net assets
throughout the month.

The group fee rate is based on the average net assets of all the
mutual funds advised by FMR. This rate cannot rise above 0.52%, and it
drops as total assets under management increase.

For August 1999, the group fee rate was 0.2818%. The individual
fund fee rate is 0.45%.

FMR pays FMR U.K., FMR Far East, F IJ, a nd FIIA for providing
assistance with investment advisory services, and FIIA in turn pays
FIIA(U.K.)L.

FM R may, from time to time, agree to reimburse a class for
management fees and other expenses above a specified limit. FMR
retains the ability to be repaid by a class if expenses fall below the
specified limit prior to the end of the fiscal year. Reimbursement
arrangements can decrease a class's expenses and boost its
performance.

to the sales charge schedules above. To qualify for a Class A or Class
T front-end sales charge reduction under one of these programs, you
must notify Fidelity in advance of your purchase. More detailed
information about these programs is contained in the statement of
additional information (SAI).

COMBINED PURCHASE. To receive a Class A or Class T front-end sales
charge reduction, if you are a new shareholder, you may combine your
purchase of Class A or Class T shares with purchases of: (i) Class A,
Class T, Class B and Class C shares of any Fidelity Advisor fund and
(ii) Advisor B Class shares and Advisor C Class shares of Treasury
Fund.

RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION. To receive a Class A or Class T front-end
sales charge reduction, if you are an existing shareholder, you may
add to your purchase of Class A or Class T shares the current value of
your holdings in: (i) Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares of
any Fidelity Advisor fund, (ii) Advisor B Class shares and Advisor C
Class shares of Treasury Fund and (iii) Daily Money Class shares of
Treasury Fund, Prime Fund or Tax-Exempt Fund acquired by exchange from
any Fidelity Advisor fund.

LETTER OF INTENT. You may receive a Class A or Class T front-end sales
charge reduction on your purchases of Class A and Class T shares made
during a 13-month period by signing a Letter of Intent (Letter). Each
Class A or Class T purchase you make after you sign the Letter will be
entitled to the reduced front-end sales charge applicable to the total
investment indicated in the Letter. Purchases of the following may be
aggregated for the purpose of completing your Letter: (i) Class A and
Class T shares of any Fidelity Advisor fund (except those acquired by
exchange from Daily Money Class shares of Treasury Fund, Prime Fund or
Tax-Exempt Fund that had been previously exchanged from a Fidelity
Advisor fund), (ii) Class B and Class C shares of any Fidelity Advisor
fund and (iii) Advisor B Class shares and Advisor C Class shares of
Treasury Fund. Reinvested income and capital gain distributions will
not be considered purchases for the purpose of completing your Letter.

Class B shares may, upon redemption, be assessed a CDSC based on the
following schedule:

CLASS B

From Date of Purchase Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge

Less than 1 year 5%

1 year to less than 2 years 4%

2 years to less than 3 years 3%

3 years to less than 4 years 3%

4 years to less than 5 years 2%

5 years to less than 6 years 1%

6 years to less than 7 yearsA 0%

A AFTER SEVEN YEARS, CLASS B SHARES WILL CONVERT AUTOMATICALLY TO
CLASS A SHARES OF THE SAME FIDELITY ADVISOR FUND.

When exchanging Class B shares of one fund for Class B shares of
another Fidelity Advisor fund or Advisor B Class shares of Treasury
Fund, your Class B shares retain the CDSC schedule in effect when they
were originally bought.

Except as provided below, investment professionals receive as
compensation from FDC, at the time of sale, a concession equal to
4.00% of your purchase of Class B shares. For purchases of Class B
shares through reinvested dividends or capital gain distributions,
investment professionals do not receive a concession at the time of
sale.

Class C shares may, upon redemption within one year of purchase, be
assessed a CDSC of 1.00%.

Except as provided below, investment professionals will receive as
compensation from FDC, at the time of the sale, a concession equal to
1.00% of your purchase of Class C shares. For purchases of Class C
shares made for an employee benefit plan, 403(b) program or plan
covering a sole-proprietor (formerly Keogh/H.R. 10 plan) or through
reinvested dividends or capital gain distributions, investment
professionals do not receive a concession at the time of sale.

The CDSC for Class B and Class C shares will be calculated based on
the lesser of the cost of the Class B or Class C shares, as
applicable, at the initial date of purchase or the value of those
Class B or Class C shares, as applicable, at redemption, not including
any reinvested dividends or capital gains. Class B and Class C shares
acquired through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions will not be subject to a CDSC. In determining the
applicability and rate of any CDSC at redemption, Class B or Class C
shares representing reinvested dividends and capital gains will be
redeemed first, followed by those Class B or Class C shares that have
been held for the longest period of time.

A front-end sales charge will not apply to the following Class A
shares:

1. Purchased for an employee benefit plan (except a SIMPLE IRA, SEP,

To qualify for a Class A or Class T front-end sales charge reduction
or waiver, you must notify Fidelity in advance of your purchase.

To qualify for a Class B or Class C CDSC waiver, you must notify
Fidelity in advance of your redemption.

FINDER'S FEE. On eligible purchases of (i) Class A shares in amounts
of $1 million or more that qualify for a Class A load waiver, (ii)
Class A shares in amounts of $25 million or more, and (iii) Class T
shares in amounts of $1 million or more, investment professionals will
be compensated with a fee at the rate of 0.25% of the purchase amount.

Shares held by an insurance company separate account will be
aggregated at the client (e.g., the contract holder or plan sponsor)
level, not at the separate account level. Upon request, anyone
claiming eligibility for the 0.25% fee with respect to shares held by
an insurance company separate account must provide Fidelity access to
records detailing purchases at the client level.

Except as provided below, any assets on which a finder's fee has been
paid will bear a contingent deferred sales charge (Class A or Class T
CDSC) if they do not remain in Class A or Class T shares of the
Fidelity Advisor funds, or Daily Money Class shares of Treasury Fund,
Prime Fund or Tax-Exempt Fund, for a period of at least one
uninterrupted year. The Class A or Class T CDSC will be 0.25% of the
lesser of the cost of the Class A or Class T shares, as applicable, at
the initial date of purchase or the value of those Class A or Class T
shares, as applicable, at redemption, not including any reinvested
dividends or capital gains. Class A and Class T shares acquired
through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions will
not be subject to a Class A or Class T CDSC. In determining the
applicability and rate of any Class A or Class T CDSC at redemption,
Class A or Class T shares representing reinvested dividends and
capital gains will be redeemed first, followed by those Class A or
Class T CDSC shares that have been held for the longest period of
time.

The Class A or Class T CDSC will not apply to the redemption of
shares:

1. Held by insurance company separate accounts;

2. For plan loans or distributions or exchanges to non-Advisor fund
investment options from employee benefit plans (except shares of
SIMPLE IRA, SEP, and SARSEP plans and plans covering self-employed
individuals and their employees (formerly Keogh/H.R. 10 plans)
purchased on or after February 11, 1999) and 403(b) programs; or

3. For disability, payment of death benefits, or minimum required
distributions starting at age 70 1/2 from Traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs,
SIMPLE IRAs, SEPs, SARSEPs and plans covering a sole proprietor or
self-employed individuals and their employees (formerly Keogh/H.R. 10
plans).

To qualify for a Class A or Class T finder's fee or CDSC waiver, you
must notify Fidelity in advance of your purchase or redemption,
respectively.

REINSTATEMENT PRIVILEGE. If you have sold all or part of your Class A,
Class T, Class B or Class C shares of the fund, you may reinvest an
amount equal to all or a portion of the redemption proceeds in the
same class of the fund or another Fidelity Advisor fund, at the NAV
next determined after receipt in proper form of your investment order,
provided that such reinvestment is made within 90 days of redemption.
Under these circumstances, the dollar amount of the CDSC you paid, if
any, on shares will be reimbursed to you by reinvesting that amount in
Class A, Class T, Class B or Class C shares, as applicable. You must
reinstate your Class A, Class T, Class B or Class C shares into an
account with the same registration. This privilege may be exercised
only once by a shareholder with respect to the fund and certain
restrictions may apply. For purposes of the CDSC schedule, the holding
period will continue as if the Class A, Class T, Class B or Class C
shares had not been redeemed.

CONVERSION FEATURE. After seven years from the initial date of
purchase, Class B shares and any capital appreciation associated with
those shares, convert automatically to Class A shares of the same
Fidelity Advisor fund. Conversion to Class A shares will be made at
NAV. At the time of conversion, a portion of the Class B shares bought
through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains (Dividend
Shares) will also convert to Class A shares. The portion of Dividend
Shares that will convert is determined by the ratio of your converting
Class B non-Dividend Shares to your total Class B non-Dividend Shares.

Class A of the fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under
the plan, Class A of the fund is authorized to pay FDC a monthly 12b-1
fee as compensation for providing services intended to result in the
sale of Class A shares and/or shareholder support services. Class A of
the fund may pay FDC a 12b-1 fee at an annual rate of 0.75% of its
average net assets, or such lesser amount as the Trustees may
determine from time to time. Class A of the fund currently pays FDC a
monthly 12b-1 fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of its average net assets
throughout the month. Class A's 12b-1 fee rate for Advisor Emerging
Asia may be increased only when the Trustees believe that it is in the
best interests of Class A shareholders to do so.

Class T of the fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under
the plan, Class T of the fund is authorized to pay FDC a monthly 12b-1
fee as compensation for providing services intended to result in the
sale of Class T shares and/or shareholder support services. Class T of
the fund may pay FDC a 12b-1 fee at an annual rate of 0.75% of its
average net assets, or such lesser amount as the Trustees may
determine from time to time. Class T of the fund currently pays FDC a
monthly 12b-1 fee at an annual rate of 0.50% of its average net assets
throughout the month. Class T's 12b-1 fee rate for Advisor Emerging
Asia may be increased only when the Trustees believe that it is in the
best interests of Class T shareholders to do so.

FDC may reallow to intermediaries (such as banks, broker-dealers and
other service-providers), including its affiliates, up to the full
amount of the Class A and Class T 12b-1 fee, for providing services
intended to result in the sale of Class A or Class T shares and/or
shareholder support services.

Class B of the fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under
the plan, Class B of the fund is authorized to pay FDC a monthly 12b-1
(distribution) fee as compensation for providing services intended to
result in the sale of Class B shares. Class B of the fund currently
pays FDC a monthly 12b-1 (distribution) fee at an annual rate of 0.75%
of its average net assets throughout the month.

In addition, pursuant to the Class B plan, Class B pays FDC a monthly
12b-1 (service) fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of Class B's average
net assets throughout the month for providing shareholder support
services.

FDC may reallow up to the full amount of the Class B 12b-1 (service)
fee to intermediaries (such as banks, broker-dealers and other
service-providers) for providing shareholder support services.

Class C of the fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under
the plan, Class C of the fund is authorized to pay FDC a monthly 12b-1
(distribution) fee as compensation for providing services intended to
result in the sale of Class C shares. Class C of the fund currently
pays FDC a monthly 12b-1 (distribution) fee at an annual rate of 0.75%
of its average net assets throughout the month.

In addition, pursuant to the Class C plan, Class C pays FDC a monthly
12b-1 (service) fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of Class C's average
net assets throughout the month for providing shareholder support
services.

Normally, after the first year of investment, FDC may reallow up to
the full amount of the Class C 12b-1 (distribution) fees to
intermediaries (such as banks, broker-dealers and other
service-providers) for providing services intended to result in the
sale of Class C shares and may reallow up to the full amount of the
Class C 12b-1 (service) fee to intermediaries for providing
shareholder support services.

For purchases of Class C shares made for an employee benefit plan,
403(b) program or plan covering a sole-proprietor (formerly Keogh/H.R.
10 plan) or through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions, during the first year of investment and thereafter, FDC
may reallow up to the full amount of the Class C 12b-1 (distribution)
fee paid by such shares to intermediaries, including its affiliates,
for providing services intended to result in the sale of Class C
shares and may reallow up to the full amount of the Class C 12b-1
(service) fee paid by such shares to intermediaries, including its
affiliates, for providing shareholder support services.

Because 12b-1 fees are paid out of each class's assets on an ongoing
basis, they will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you
more than paying other types of sales charges.

In addition, each plan specifically recognizes that FMR may make
payments from its management fee revenue, past profits, or other
resources to FDC for expenses incurred in connection with providing
services intended to result in the sale of the applicable class's
shares and/or shareholder support services, including payments made to
intermediaries that provide those services. Currently, the Board of
Trustees of the fund has authorized such payments for Class A, Class
T, Class B and Class C.

To receive sales concessions, finder's fees and payments made pursuant
to a Distribution and Service Plan, intermediaries must sign the
appropriate agreement with FDC in advance.

FMR may allocate brokerage transactions in a manner that takes into
account the sale of shares of the Fidelity Advisor funds, provided
that the fund receives brokerage services and commission rates
comparable to those of other broker-dealers.

No dealer, sales representative, or any other person has been
authorized to give any information or to make any representations,
other than those contained in this prospectus and in the related
statement of additional information (SAI), in connection with the
offer contained in this prospectus. If given or made, such other
information or representations must not be relied upon as having been
authorized by the fund or FDC. This prospectus and the SAI do not
constitute an offer by the fund or by FDC to sell shares of the fund
to or to buy shares of the fund from any person to whom it is unlawful
to make such offer.

APPENDIX

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights table is intended to help you understand
the fund's financial history for the past 5 years. Prior to June 16,
1999, the fund operated as the Closed-End Fund. On June 15, 1999, the
Closed-End Fund was reorganized as an open-end fund through a transfer
of all of its assets and liabilities to the fund. Shareholders of the
Closed-End Fund received Class A shares of the fund in exchange for
their shares of the Closed-End Fund. Certain information reflects
financial results for a single Closed-End Fund share. The total
returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have
earned (or lost) on an investment in the Closed-End Fund (assuming
reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). The annual
information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP,
independent accountants, whose report, along with the Closed-End
Fund's financial highlights and financial statements, are included in
the Closed-End Fund's annual report. Class A, Class T, Class B, and
Class C shares were not offered prior to June 16, 1999. Financial
statements and financial highlights for Class A, Class T, Class B, and
Class C will be included in the fund's annual report when each class
has completed its first annual period. Class A, Class T, Class B, and
Class C shares may have higher total expenses than the Closed-End
Fund. A free copy of the Closed-End Fund's annual report is available

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR)'s principal investment
strategies include:

(small solid bullet) Normally investing primarily in equity and debt
securities of Asian emerging market issuers.

(small solid bullet) Normally investing at least 65% of total assets
in securities of Asian emerging market issuers.

(small solid bullet) Investing principally in equity securities.

(small solid bullet) Using fundamental analysis of each issuer's
financial condition and industry position and market and economic
conditions to select investments.

The fund is subject to the following principal investment risks:

(small solid bullet) INTEREST RATE CHANGES. Interest rate increases
can cause the price of a debt security to decrease.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or
any other government agency.

When you sell your shares of the fund, they could be worth more or
less than what you paid for them.

PERFORMANCE

Prior to June 1 6 , 1999, the fund operated as Fidelity Advisor
Emerging Asia Fund, Inc. (Closed-End Fund), a closed-end fund
with the same investment objective and substantially similar
investment policies . On June 15, 1999, the Closed-End Fund was
reorganized as an open-end fund through a transfer of all of its
assets and liabilities to the fund. Shareholders of the Closed-End
Fund received Class A shares of the fund in exchange for their shares
of the Closed-End Fund. Institutional Class shares were not offered
prior to June 16, 1999. The returns presented below do not reflect
Institutional Class total expenses. If the effect of Institutional
Class expenses was reflected, returns may be lower than than those
shown because Institutional Class shares of the fund may have higher
total expenses than the Closed-End Fund.

The following information illustrates the changes in the Closed-End
Fund's performance from year to year and compares the Closed-End
Fund's performance to the performance of a market index and an average
of the performance of similar funds over various periods of time.
Returns are based on past results and are not an indication of future
performance.

FEE TABLE

A EFFECTIVE JUNE 16, 1999, FMR HAS AGREED TO REIMBURSE INSTITUTIONAL
CLASS OF THE FUND TO THE EXTENT THAT TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES
(EXCLUDING INTEREST, TAXES, SECURITIES LENDING FEES, BROKERAGE
COMMISSIONS , AND EXTRAORDINARY EXPENSES), AS A PERCENTAGE OF
ITS AVERAGE NET ASSETS, EXCEED 1.75%. THIS ARRANGEMENT WILL REMAIN
IN EFFECT THROUGH JUNE 15, 2000.

This EXAMPLE helps you compare the cost of investing in the fund with
the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

Let's say, hypothetically, that Institutional Class's annual return is
5% and that your shareholder fees and Institutional Class's annual
operating expenses are exactly as described in the fee table. This
example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant
to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of
which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you

FUND BASICS

INVESTMENT DETAILS

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

ADVISOR EMERGING ASIA FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Because the fund is considered non-diversified, FMR may invest a
significant percentage of the fund's assets in a single issuer.

FMR may lend the fund's securities to broker-dealers or other
institutions to earn income for the fund.
FMR may use various techniques, such as buying and selling futures
contracts, to increase or decrease the fund's exposure to changing
security prices or other factors that affect security values. If FMR's
strategies do not work as intended, the fund may not achieve its
objective.

DESCRIPTION OF PRINCIPAL SECURITY TYPES

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

The following factors may significantly affect the fund's performance:

STOCK MARKET VOLATILITY. The value of equity securities fluctuates in
response to issuer, political, market s, and economic
developments. In the short term, equity prices can fluctuate
dramatically in response to these developments. Different parts of the
market and different types of equity securities can react differently
to these developments. For example, large cap stocks can react
differently from small cap stocks, and "growth" stocks can
react differently from "value" stocks. Issuer,
political , or economic developments can affect a single issuer,
issuers within an industry or economic sector or geographic region, or
the market as a whole.

Investing in emerging markets involves risks in addition to and
greater than those generally associated with investing in more
developed foreign markets. The extent of economic development;
political stability; market depth, infrastructure , and
capitalization; and regulatory oversight can be less than in
more developed markets. Emerging market economies can be subject to
greater social, economic, regulator y, and political
uncertainties. All of these factors can make emerging market
securities more volatile and potentially less liquid than securities
issued in more developed markets.

In response to market, economic, politica l, or other
conditions, FMR may temporarily use a different investment strategy
for defensive purposes. If FMR does so, different factors could affect
the fund's performance and the fund may not achieve its investment
objective.

FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT POLICIES

The policy discussed below is fundamental, that is, subject to change
only by shareholder approval.

ADVISOR EMERGING ASIA FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation.

VALUING SHARES

The fund is open for business each day the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) is open.

A class's net asset value per share (NAV) is the value of a single

the close of business of the NYSE, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time.
However, NAV may be calculated earlier if trading on the NYSE is
restricted or as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). The fund's assets are valued as of this time for the purpose of
computing Institutional Class's NAV.

FUND SERVICES

FUND MANAGEMENT

Advisor Emerging Asia is a mutual fund, an investment that pools
shareholders' money and invests it toward a specified goal.

FMR is the fund's manager.

As of March 25, 1999, FMR had approximately $ 521.7
billion in discretionary assets under management.

As the manager, FMR is responsible for choosing the fund's investments
and handling its business affairs.

Affiliates assist FMR with foreign investments:

(small solid bullet) Fidelity International Investment Advisors
(FIIA), in Pembroke, Bermuda, serves as a sub-adviser for the fund. As
of September 28, 1998, FIIA had approximately $1 billion in
discretionary assets under management. Currently, FIIA is primarily
responsible for choosing investments for Advisor Emerging Asia.

(small solid bullet) Fidelity International Investment Advisors (U.K.)
Limited (FIIA(U.K.)L), in London, England, serves as a sub-adviser for
the fund. As of September 28, 1998, F IIA(U.K.)L had
approximately $2.3 billion in discre tionary assets under
management. Currently, FIIA (U.K.)L provides investment research and
advice on issuers based outside the United States and may also provide
investment advisory services for Advisor Emerging Asia.

(small solid bullet) Fidelity Investment Japan Ltd. (FIJ), in Tokyo,
Japan, serves as a sub-adviser for the fund. As of September 28,
1998 , FIJ had approximately $3.96 billion in discretionary
assets under management. Currently, FIJ provides investment research
and advice on issuers based outside the United States and may also
provide investment advisory services for Advisor Emerging Asia.

The group fee rate is based on the average net assets of all the
mutual funds advised by FMR. This rate cannot rise above 0.52%, and it
drops as total assets under management increase.

For August 1999, the group fee rate was 0.2818 %. The individual
fund fee rate is 0.45%.

FMR pays FMR U.K., FMR Far East, FIJ , and FIIA for providing
assistance with investment advisory services, and FIIA in turn pays
FIIA(U.K.)L.

FMR may, from time to time, agree to reimburse a class for
management fees and other expenses above a specified limit. FMR
retains the ability to be repaid by a class if expenses fall below the
specified limit prior to the end of the fiscal year. Reimbursement
arrangements can decrease a class's expenses and boost its
performance.

FUND DISTRIBUTION

The fund is composed of multiple classes of shares. All classes of the
fund have a common investment objective and investment portfolio.

FDC distributes Institutional Class's shares.

Institutional Class has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that
recognizes that FMR may use its management fee revenues, as well as
its past profits or its resources from any other source, to pay FDC
for expenses incurred in connection with providing services intended
to result in the sale of Institutional Class shares and/or shareholder
support services. FMR, directly or through FDC, may pay
intermediaries, such as banks, broker-dealers and other
service-providers, that provide those services. Currently, the Board
of Trustees has authorized such payments for Institutional Class.

To receive payments made pursuant to a Distribution and Service Plan,
intermediaries must sign the appropriate agreement with FDC in
advance.

No dealer, sales representative, or any other person has been
authorized to give any information or to make any representations,
other than those contained in this prospectus and in the related
statement of additional information (SAI), in connection with the
offer contained in this prospectus. If given or made, such other
information or representations must not be relied upon as having been
authorized by the fund or FDC. This prospectus and the related SAI do
not constitute an offer by the fund or by FDC to sell shares of the
fund to or to buy shares of the fund from any person to whom it is
unlawful to make such offer.

APPENDIX

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights table is intended to help you understand
the fund's financial history for the past 5 years. Prior to June 16,
1999, the fund operated as the Closed-End Fund. On June 15, 1999, the
Closed-End Fund was reorganized as an open-end fund through a transfer
of all of its assets and liabilities to the fund. Shareholders of the
Closed-End Fund received Class A shares of the fund in exchange for
their shares of the Closed-End Fund. Certain information reflects
financial results for a single Closed-End Fund share. The total
returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have
earned (or lost) on an investment in the Closed-End Fund (assuming
reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). The annual
information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP,
independent accountants, whose report, along with the Closed-End
Fund's financial highlights and financial statements, are included in
the Closed-End Fund's annual report. Institutional Class shares were
not offered prior to June 16, 1999. Financial statements and financial
highlights for Institutional Class will be included in the fund's
annual report when each class has completed its first annual period.
Institutional Class shares may have higher total expenses than the
Closed-End Fund. A free copy of the Closed-End Fund's annual report is
available upon request.
