Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
A multilateral transfer involves the transfer of resources from one country to another through an intermediary organization or institution. In this case, the World Bank is providing finance to a developing country to build communication networks. This transfer involves multiple parties and institutions, making it a multilateral transfer. The other options all involve bilateral transfers between two parties, without any intermediaries, and therefore are not examples of multilateral transfers.
