Read the passage below carefully:

The Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) was established on May 22, 1964, by four countries bordering Lake Chad: Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Nigeria. The Central African Republic joined the organization in 1994, while Sudan became a member in 2008. Headquartered in N'Djamena, Chad, the commission was created to regulate and coordinate the sustainable management of water and natural resources in the region. Funding for the commission's projects is primarily derived from mandatory annual contributions paid by member states, supplemented by support from international donor agencies. In 2012, member nations officially adopted a Water Charter to ensure equitable resource distribution.

Based on the passage, evaluate the following statement:
Sudan was one of the four founding member states that established the Lake Chad Basin Commission in 1964.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. Sudan joined the Lake Chad Basin Commission in 2008, whereas the four founding countries in 1964 were Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Nigeria.
The passage explicitly names Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Nigeria as the four founding member states in 1964, stating that Sudan joined the commission later in 2008.
