(1) What is your home airport?
SIN

(2) What types of fares do you usually buy ?
Y

(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year?
around 150,000 per year (at least 100k for sure)

(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it?
A3 Gold

(5) What is most important to you in a FFP?
Upgrades and award tickets availability (coupled with low taxes for reward tix), ease of booking reward tix (A3 is a pain in the backside).

(6) Which routes do you fly most often
Intra-Asia (ex SIN to everywhere in Asia, India to the west, Japan to the East) + 1 or 2 flights to US or Europe per year.

(7) Preferred Airlines
SQ, CX, LX, KE, OZ

(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure?
Mainly for work but can usually chose the carrier. Fares booked are usually the ones qualifying for mileage redemption because I book quite late... so cheapest fares are usually not available anymore and my schedules change often, hence the need of booking flexible rates. No budget airlines at all, except for a few private trips.

Thanks!
You have to seriously and quickly change to Asiana. You get lifetime StarGold status very quickly with Asiana. (at the rate you are flying)!
Check out the rules on Asiana, and enrol!
