LOS ANGELES, Dec. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — International music icon YOSHIKI has donated $100,000 through Yoshiki Foundation America 501(c)(3) to support victims of devastating floods in Southeast Asia, with $50,000 each going to the Red Cross Thailand and Red Cross Indonesia.
Immediately following his $100,000 donation to the Hong Kong Red Cross for victims of the tragic fire at Wang Fuk Court in Hong Kong’s Tai Po district, YOSHIKI has committed an additional $100,000 to flood relief efforts, bringing his recent Southeast Asian disaster relief total to $200,000.
“I am deeply saddened by the reports of flood damage affecting Thailand and Indonesia. Seeing so many families losing their homes and livelihoods, I felt I needed to do what I could to help,” said YOSHIKI. “With X JAPAN’s arena concerts and classical performances in Thailand, I have built deep connections with the fans. Our bond through music has been incredibly meaningful. I haven’t yet been able to visit Indonesia, but so many passionate fans there have always supported my music. When communities that are important to me are suffering, I cannot stand by. I express my deepest condolences to all those affected and to the families who have lost loved ones. I pray for swift relief and recovery.”
Severe flooding has devastated communities across Thailand and Indonesia in recent weeks, displacing thousands of families. YOSHIKI has conducted donations and charity auctions during X JAPAN tours in Thailand. The November 26 fire at Hong Kong’s Wang Fuk Court housing estate rapidly spread across seven residential towers, leaving thousands displaced and the community devastated.
