List of countries/airports who take fingerprints and other biometric data
Japan and South Korea only do because the US does. They don't do it to transit pax as they don't pass through immigration. The US has no I-I transit, everyone enters the US.
The US takes anywhere between all prints and just 1 finger depending on which agent you get.
Malyasia doesn't do fingerprints the last time I was there, but others claimed they did at the same time I was there...
