Well there is leg lengthening surgery. It would involve drilling screws into your bones and then breaking the bone so new bone grows. Every day, usually twice in one day, you need to turn this little key. It breaks your bone again and again so that eventually the legs are longer. It is very painful! Now being that you are not yet 18 you may continue to grow. In fact you may continue to grow until you are age 21 or so.

WOw..Break the bone in order for new bone to be growed..Sounds very serious..Anyway..thanks for you information..I have not heard that before..All i know is starting from 18, getting tall will be very very slow..Slow alot compare to when we were 16.. =.= So.. is there any other method like some exercise?..which doesn't required serious matter..?

To the best of my knowledge NO. I am only 5' 1" (sorry I don't know that in metric - I should be ashamed) and I never found any way of getting taller. But you know what I don't mind being short anymore.

i was told to lift my leg 90degree from my other leg..Do that everyday for about 30 minutes..I only manage to do for about 5 minutes everyday(in bath room while bathing)..But have not shown any improvement. U should try that too if u like..It might work if u make it 30 minutes everyday for about half a year...Just helping. :D
