Some nominees:

Sandy Lam
Siti Nurhaliza
Sheila Majid
Lea Salonga
Emi Fujita
Best tone is very subjective. So, I won't call any singer best. But, of all Asian singers, I like Deric Wan's voice best.

His voice can always manage to pull my heartstring.

on top of my head right now, Jacky Cheung, hacken, and WILLIAM SO
Teresa Teng 鄧麗君
She has a sweet and soft voice
I think Dicky Cheung, Andy Hui (both having this similarity in the voice. But Dicky's voice is more sexy), Jonathan Lee, Sylvia Chang (gives a soothing feel), Sandy Lam, Nnadia Chan (slightly high in pitch tho).
Dave Wong, I must say, he has a really good tone but not my type of liking.
What can I say? I'm still standing! No weapon against me shall prosper! I am more than a conqueror!!!
I don't care to sit by the window on an airplane. If I can't control it, why look?
The late, great Roman Tam was among the very best.
I cannot believe you people could go six posts into this thread without naming him. Shame on you.
Definitely Gackt-san!!!!

Well, I don't know about this Tam, haven't heard pieces from him so I can't judge. Instead, I'm reminded of another Tam. Alan Tam Wing Loon, that is. He has a good voice, IMO. And, how can she slipped my mind..... Anita Mui Yim Fong! Not only is she gorgeous, she has a good voice too!

Roman Tam's singing. Another irreplaceable star. Hear the legend sings.

Another singing with a great tone. His name is Kelvin Tan Wei Lian (陈伟联). He's not loud, but his voice is very soothing and very relaxing to hear. Certainly heart melting.

My favourite voice belongs to 鄭中基 Ronald Cheng. He shows this superb magnetism when he quivers his voice; pure pleasure to hear. That guy is surely gifted.
Other "active" singers with very nice voices: Hacken Lee, Wong Lee Hom, Leo Ku, Eason Chan, Justin Lo. Jacky Cheung is a great singer but his voice doesn't really appeal to me.
Heck, I just realized there are many male singers with great voices that I can just list out, but not so for females. The only ones I can think of are Faye Wong and Sally Yeh, but they are not even active anymore.

Check out my creations and read the legendary Judge Expression's Courtroom Service.
Wah, such a rare find. It's very very rare that I can encounter someone outside of my family who didn't find Jacky Cheung's voice appaeling. Many of my friends are either a fan of his or think his really great. I know he's a very good singer, but, somehow, like you, his voice doesn't appeal to me either.

For female vocalist, I use to like Nadia's voice before she changed her singing technique. Now, her voice sound so thin, when it used to be so rich.
Nadia Chan's voice
pre singing technique change.
