Why am I getting PLS-00103 when I try to create a table in a PL/SQL procedure? I am getting this error:

[Error] PLS-00103 (23: 9): PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "CREATE" when expecting one of the following:
   begin case declare exit for goto if loop mod null pragma
   raise return select update while with &lt;an identifier&gt;

when attempting to run this code. What is it that I'm doing wrong here?
Should I use bulk collect. if so, how?

You can not write DDL in PL/SQL block directly as you have shown in your question.

However you can execute these DDLs using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE command as demonstrated below.

  CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ddl_test AS
  BEGIN
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP TABLE tbl1';
  END;
