MANILA, Philippines — Twenty actors and eleven actresses are among the 31 celebrities on the government’s drugs watchlist, Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Director General Aaron Aquino said Wednesday.

“Of the 31, I think eleven are actresses and the rest are actors,” Aquino said in an interview with ANC’s Headstart.

“[Sa] thirty-one na yan, palagay ko tatlo lang yung matanda. All of them are young,” he added. “Puro bata, at least 20 or 30” in age, he said.

[Of the 31, I think only three are veterans. All the rest are young… at least 20 or 30.]
