What’s wrong with these leaves?

One leaf has many white spots with brown dots within them. Another singular leaf looks twisted out of shape. And a few have holes in them. Otherwise the plant looks healthy, green, and happy. What’s wrong?

Are those leaves near the bottom of the plant? It's normal for older leaves to get a little out of shape. Don't remove them until they look really brown.
@SocialRubberfig hi Ria and welcome to Greg! #Aglaonema #GregGang #PlantsMakePeopleHappy
If you haven’t already done so, please do a very thorough pest inspection on your plants. Those white spots kinda look like mealy bugs to me. I would recommend that you give the plant a very good cleaning using your sink or water hose, avoid getting the soil drenched. Also, trim off any brown, crispy areas on the leaves, snip off all of the bad looking leaves as they will not get better. Then it’s time to treat it with either a neem oil or insecticidal soap spray.
@YammieOf3 Thank you, so helpful!
@SimpleSucc Okay, got it! Thank you.
@SocialRubberfig you’re so welcome. Aglaonema plants are my most favorite. I just received these from a seller in Indonesia.
@YammieOf3 So gorgeous!
