Leading up to its farewell, the drama anthology released a statement to thank its viewers and letter senders. It reads, “It has been an honor for ‘MMK’ and Ms. Charo Santos-Concio to share uplifting stories of the Filipino people on Philippine television for the past 31 years.”
“As we prepare our three-part Tatlong Dekadang Pasasalamat finale, we wish to express our gratitude to the many letter senders who have entrusted us with their life stories as well as to the viewers who have found strength, joy, hope, and inspiration in the characters and their journeys,” it continued. “In every story [that] we tell, we celebrate the triumph of the human spirit, the resiliency of people, and the Filipinos’ undying love for their families.”
The program concluded its statement on a hopeful note, “We look forward to telling more of these stories again in the future. Maraming salamat at hanggang sa muli, Kapamilya!”
The ABS-CBN program premiered in May 1991 with its original title, “Maalala Mo Kaya”.
