The approval rating of Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding is staying stable despite the Caribbean nation’s economic struggles, the BBC reports. Nearly half – 47 percent – of people who took the survey think Golding is doing a good job, according to the Jamaican Gleaner poll. His administration recently made the controversial decision to ask for aid from the International Monetary Fund, and Golding has also imposed a freeze on the wages of public workers. But Golding has “earned” his approval rating because of his achievements in the past, a pollster told the BBC.  Goldman’s Jamaican Labor Party is coming up on its second year in office.
