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.

A new governance to amplify its third edition

PARIS, Dec. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Moët Hennessy, the Wines & Spirits division of the LVMH group, announces the third edition of the World Living Soils Forum (WLSF), co-organized with ChangeNOW, on June 3 and 4, 2026, at LUMA Arles. To amplify the movement for soil regeneration and to broaden the sharing of solutions, Moët Hennessy is bringing together committed companies to design and organize the event alongside its Advisory Board.

On the eve of World Soil Day, it is fitting to highlight again this complex, fragile, and still too often overlooked ecosystem. As the foundation of life, guaranteeing the development of flora and fauna, and indeed our humanity, soils are crucial. According to the latest reports from the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), healthy soil stores twice as much carbon as the atmosphere, hosts 50% of terrestrial biodiversity, can better filter water, and retain up to 20 times more. However, today, over 40% of the world’s soils are degraded by erosion, artificialization, pollution, or overexploitation. This situation is not merely an environmental threat—it represents a systemic risk to our food security, climate resilience, and our entire economy.

An International Forum for a Collective Action to preserve and regenerate soils

Founded by Moët Hennessy in 2022, the World Living Soils Forum has established itself as the international meeting point for stakeholders committed to soil health. It brings together scientists, farmers, institutions, NGOs, start-ups, investors, and companies to share knowledge, innovations, and feedback to advance agricultural and viticultural transition.

Moët Hennessy continues its commitments and announces the third edition of the World Living Soils Forum, which will be held on June 3 and 4, 2026, at LUMA Arles and will again be co-organized with ChangeNOW.

To amplify this movement and move beyond competitive and sector-specific challenges, Moët Hennessy has sought to evolve the governance of the World Living Soils Forum by involving, in its design and organization, companies that, like itself, are committed to soil regeneration. These companies will contribute by pooling their feedback and expert networks, and by promoting new operational solutions at both local and international levels. They will join the Advisory Board, composed of sixteen external experts who oversee and arbitrate the editorial direction and the entirety of the programming.
