Opposition Leader Mark Golding has described Jamaica’s economic growth as disappointing. 

He was reacting to reports by the Planning Institute of Jamaica, PIOJ that the country saw a minimal growth of 0.1 percent for the April to June period, compared to the same quarter, last year. 

Speaking at the University of Technology, yesterday, Mr. Golding attributed the poor performance to inefficiencies in the workforce. 

Mr. Golding emphasized the need for Jamaica to evolve into a nation  that generates wealth for its citizens.
