Explanation
The correct answer is C because at the 7th G-15 Summit held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 1997, Kenya was formally admitted as a new member. This increased the total number of member countries from 15 to 16. Despite the group name remaining G-15, the actual attendance reflected the inclusion of this 16th member. This group of developing nations has continued to expand further in subsequent years.
