Do I need to tip in Asia?

Ok so I didn't want to post a new topic in every country I plan to go.

I plan on going to; India/Thailand/Laos/Vietnam/Cambodia/Malaysia/Singapore/NZ/Japan.

Is tipping a thing in hotels/hostels/restaurants? I but couldn't find out if I am expected to tip and any help would be great.
