JSlo - CO's network in Asia is United once CO joins *A, or maybe even before if the CO-UA bilateral alliance goes into place sooner. Don't count on NWA being CO's Asia network, nor expect to get away from UA that way.

Of course you'll have NH, TG, SQ, OZ, and NZ as *A partners in that part of the world too. But the "kissin' cousin" relationship of CO will be with UA, so same old same old.
