Dhaka, though it sucks.

Seoul shouldn't have an acute accent, BTW. Is it mojibake?

I copy pasted this from a list.  Osaka and I think one of the Indian cities had accents on them, too, but I deleted them.  I guess I missed Seoul.

I think the best choice here is Tokyo. Interesting culture, intreresting food, doesn't seem to be crappy.

Tokyo, Osaka, or Seoul. The others seem to suffer from air pollution problems and/or are poverty stricken.

Tokyo.

Are there no Middle-Eastern cities with over 10 million people? Or did you just not include Middle-East in Asia? I'd have thought that Baghdad or Tehran would have over 10 million.

Tehran has 11 mil (in Middle East poll); Baghdad only has 6 mil.

Dilli (hindi)/Dehli (urdu). I love Old Shahjahanabad. And thanks for not misspelling it "Delhi"!

I am going to have to rep my hometown....Delhi. But I would probably reside in Gurgaon or Noida. Well... I guess Noida considering my parents already have a place there.

I used to work in the education center at Camp Zama, so Tokyo will always have a soft spot in my heart.

Seoul, followed by Tokyo.  But I'd have to be forced to live anywhere in Asia, I think.  Don't get me wrong, I'd love to visit.  But I don't wanna live there.

It's called Dehli in Urdu? I've never encountered an Indian language which didn't refer to it as Dilli.

What a list of unremittingly horrible choices. I picked Osaka, in hopes that it might be a tad roomier than Tokyo, but I tend to doubt it.

I have never seen the "dehli" spelling before. Dilli is how it is pronounced in Indian languages and maybe the city should be renamed as such. Just like Kolkata... that is how everybody was pronouncing it for decades anyways.
