00:03 In September 2000, a female student was reported missing from the seventh floor of a university in Manila.
00:12 She did not leave a letter or any form of goodbye.
00:19 And until now, more than 20 years have passed.
00:22 She continues to feel for the university.
00:29 I wonder who this woman is?
00:33 The story is spread in various student social media forums.
00:38 The long-hidden story that has not been made clear,
00:42 will finally be revealed.
00:45 In a survey by I Wonder, the name Maningning Miklat came up.
00:53 A woman died in September 2009.
00:56 According to some reports, she is a good painter and writer.
01:05 She wrote poems in three languages, Mandarin, Filipino and English.
01:13 And she is good at writing in these languages.
01:17 If I'm not mistaken, she published a book.
01:21 One of them is when she returned to the Philippines.
01:26 The other one is before she died.
01:29 And the most famous one is Voices from the Underground.
01:33 According to the stories spread in student and social media forums,
01:39 every night, the woman's crying is heard.
01:45 Maningning was suspected of it.
01:50 Sometimes, she is accompanied by a group of people
01:53 because she is being called by the police.
01:56 So she suddenly appears in front of the school's entrance.
02:03 What I know about her is that she committed suicide because of a problem.
02:11 I'm not sure if it's about her love life or financial problems.
02:16 But she was a teacher in that school.
02:20 They said that she committed suicide because of a problem with her boyfriend.
02:26 There's a guard who inspects every night.
02:33 While he's inspecting the rooms, he saw a woman on the 7th floor.
02:45 Professor MJ Rafal is also familiar with the stories spread about Maningning Miklat.
02:50 But for him, the stories are full of romanticism.
02:54 He committed suicide because of love.
02:59 There are a lot of stories.
03:01 And it's not clear that his family is the reason for his death.
03:06 There are more stories because he committed suicide.
03:11 It's not like the internet was that important back then.
03:16 But when the internet was available, he became an urban legend.
03:20 When he committed suicide,
03:22 some people said that he had a picture of someone who jumped.
03:27 I don't know who it was.
03:31 And he fell.
03:33 You know, it's still beautiful when he falls.
03:36 So it's romanticized.
03:38 His close friend, Abba,
03:41 sometimes received Maningning's works that he still cares about.
03:46 My birthday was July 15, that was in 1990.
03:51 Maningning came and gave me a painting.
03:55 There's a dedication on the back of the painting.
03:59 He was known for his Chinese-inspired brushworks.
04:07 He was also surprised by the stories he shared.
04:10 He also shared stories about his love life.
04:14 He said that love life is not his priority.
04:18 He has a picture that he puts in his wallet.
04:24 He said that it's just for fun because he sees his handsome friend.
04:29 But according to Abba,
04:33 the story should be about his mental health.
04:36 At that time, he was not yet in the discussion.
04:39 The night before he died,
04:41 I told his classmates that he was always dazed.
04:45 He was physically and mentally tired.
04:51 According to this, Maningning's brother, Banawe,
04:56 Maningning was born on September 29, 2000.
05:00 If there are signs of mental unwellness,
05:09 we did not notice.
05:11 He was an artist.
05:14 More often than not, he wanted to be alone in his room because he painted there.
05:25 Before, there was still a stigma associated with anything related to mental health.
05:33 That's why he was not discussed.
05:35 The situation got better when the mental health law was passed.
05:40 But if there should be a story about Maningning Miklat,
05:45 this is what he is good at in painting and painting.
05:50 He is still alive in his mother's memory.
05:55 He is a very kind child.
05:57 He is quiet and very intelligent.
06:00 If he likes painting, he will really paint.
06:05 Did you know that one of Maningning Miklat's works is here in Bacura of Kapuso Network?
06:17 In 1992, he won the Grand Prize in Non-Representational Painting
06:21 of the Art Association of the Philippines from his work, "The Trouble in Paradise".
06:26 The GMA is one of the winners of the award.
06:29 I haven't seen that for a long time.
06:32 Since when did he win that?
06:34 Kapuso, we are now with Maningning Miklat,
06:42 a well-known painter, especially of his generation.
06:47 This is Tita Alma.
06:48 Thanks to the I Wonder team, we found out that one of our colleagues here at GMA
06:57 is Maningning's mother, Ms. Alma.
07:00 Have you seen this?
07:01 Yes, of course.
07:02 Because I saw what he is doing.
07:04 Oh my God.
07:10 Maningning's work, "The Trouble in Paradise",
07:14 is now displayed in our office's mezzanine.
07:19 How do you feel when you see this?
07:21 It's beautiful.
07:22 This is the time when it was very colorful.
07:27 While you are seeing this, you remember your son.
07:30 Yes.
07:31 Right?
07:32 This is the artwork of him.
07:35 I'm so happy to see it again.
07:38 It's good that you took care of GMA.
07:42 As a symbol of the colorful life of a woman,
07:46 his original poem "Verso" was given by the great singer Joey Ayala.
07:52 Abba sang this emotionally,
07:55 in memory of Maningning's upcoming anniversary.
07:59 While there is tears, don't fall in love.
08:07 In my dreams, don't wake up.
08:15 I walked through the quiet river.
08:24 The whole world seems to be sleeping.
08:33 If there is a fruit, it will fall from the water.
08:46 It's like my heart is being crushed.
09:03 Despite the dark stories of fear,
09:11 Maningning sometimes kept his light.
09:15 He used ink for writing and painting.
09:18 It will continue to be alive in our memories.
09:22 Thank you, Ayala.
09:25 "Verso" is a musical composition by Joey Ayala.
09:29 It was composed by Joey Ayala and Maningning.
09:32 It was released in 1985.
