  The ALICE experiment has several unique features which makes it an important
contributor to proton-proton physics at the LHC, in addition to its specific
design goal of studying the physics of strongly interacting matter in heavy-ion
collisions. The unique capabilities include its low transverse momentum (\pT)
acceptance, excellent vertexing, particle identification over a broad \pT range
and jet reconstruction. In this report, a brief review of ALICE capabilities is
given for studying bulk properties of produced particles which characterize the
underlying events, and the physics of heavy-flavour, quarkonia, photons,
di-leptons and jets.
