Biggest Cities in each Asian Country - Extreme

Can you name the three most populous cities in each Asian country?
Only Asian countries with more that 8,000,000 people
That's because smaller countries make the quiz harder
I used mainly Wikipedia as source, but also citypopulation.de
City proper, not urban area.
The Asian part of Russia is counted

For China, Chongqing should not be in this list.

For Iraq, Mosul should be in place, not Kirkuk.

For Thailand, Korat should be accepted as an alternative for Nakhon Ratchasima.

Good quiz. Worth a nomination just for including the Asian part of Russia which so many jetpunk quizzes on Asian themes omit.
