Read the passage below carefully:

The Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) was established on May 22, 1964, by four founding member countries: Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Nigeria. Central African Republic joined the commission in 1994, followed by Libya in 2008. Headquartered in N'Djamena, Chad, the commission was created to regulate and control the use of water and other natural resources in the basin, as well as to coordinate sustainable development projects. The LCBC is financed through annual contributions from its member states, calculated according to an agreed percentage quota based on each country's economic capacity rather than equal shares.

Based on the passage, evaluate whether the following statement is True or False:
Member states finance the Lake Chad Basin Commission through equal annual financial contributions.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

The statement is False. According to the text, annual financial contributions from member states are calculated based on an agreed percentage quota matching each country's economic capacity, explicitly contradicting the claim of equal shares.
The passage explicitly states that funding contributions are calculated based on an agreed percentage quota linked to each member state's economic capacity, explicitly noting that they are not equal shares.

2
Compare the text detail with the provided statement.
