I like AA for award redemption

I'm definitely not a hardcore flyer, but I'd like your opinions on which FFP I should choose. I'm based in HKG, and fly about 2-3 times a year for leisure, mainly to Europe and sometimes other places in Asia. Currently I'm just a Green with CX's MPC, so I don't have much to lose if I switch FFPs. What I dislike about Asiamiles is that the miles expire after 3 years, so given my infrequent flights I often have to opt for their "lifestyle awards".

Is there a better FFP for somebody in my position?

Thanks!!!

Hi HKBum, I fly almost exclusively on Cathay in Asia and I use AA to accrue my miles. The award redemption on CX is much better (22,500 AA miles for 1 way biz in Asia).
