2 x RGN-KUL-SIN in J Class (MH)

I can easily make Blue (*Silver) on Aegean with these flights (total of 15,396 miles flown - I assume tier points are just base miles?) but in the earn/burn rate the best as my SQ F flights will only earn 150% of miles flown whereas in M&M they would earn 300% - help !!!!
As SQ operates Suites on the SIN-LHR route, presumably you book into R class which earns 160% with A3. Two trips @ 6701 miles per leg x 1.6 takes you immediately to *G, even without the 2k A3 sign-up bonus.

TG J class earns 200%, so 1866 miles x 2 = 3732.
