Hmm...
Manila was an interesting place, where security guards at the mall have handmade rifles, and they search your bags at the entrance...
Rangoon is a dusty place that seems full of 60s and 70s architecture. If a comic book artist needs some inspiration for the design motifs of that era, they can probably get some inspiration from that city.
Bandar S.B. is not even a city - it's so small it's like a glorified village. It's claim to fame though is in the gold-plated domes on its mosques, but when you've seen one of them, you've mostly seen them all.
Seoul is a busy place full of life, and the food there's great. I got to visit the World Cup stadium there, which, 5 years on, still had the World Cup mascots decorating the stadium.
So good guesses everyone, but no...

Singapore is a busy city, but way too clean and it seems to be losing it's heritage.
Cheju is lovely all year round and the people there are so friendly.
I think Kuala Lumpur is hot, and I mean that temperature wise. The traffic jams there are bad as well.
So nope, guess again? I have a feeling Cali's next guess will be it...

Penang is a whole lot nicer than KL to its south and the food is better too... Kuching has had that huge waterfront redevelopment, which makes it rather nice to stroll along when the day is cooler. There are also some nice antique shops thereabouts too. Hong Kong is busy, busier than places like Beijeing, or so it seems. Despite supposing to have better food though, I found the food there mediocre, although the tailors there are great. Urm... Cali, Quis  already got that... so I guess it's your next guess?

Taipei is laid out in a huge grid, and the traffic jams are bad. It's not one of my favourite places, going out of the city to the surrounding countryside is probably one of the best things to do there.
Dubai is ultra crazy, the skyline changes every so often. I like the malls there though.
Tokyo just has that amount of energy to it, and there are so many things that seems out of place to a gaijin...
Abu Dhabi tries to be Dubai, but can't seem to quite get there. Still, I like how there's less people there and how it's not as commercialised as its neighbouring city.
Bangkok's traffic is not something to enjoy, but the food there sure is nice.
Yes, that means Quis got it. I'd like to go to Jakarta one of these days, but haven't quite been able to wing it yet. So, take it away Quis.
