Laoag City, Philippines – All videoke bars in Marcos town in Ilocos Norte were ordered padlocked.

Marcos Vice Mayor Junel Rosqueta said the municipal council passed a resolution calling for the closure amid complaints that minors are being hired as guest relations officers (GROs).

At least six minor GROs were recently rescued in videoke bars in Barangay Lydia.
