I've been a Krisflyer member before but my points always expire. I am a Qantas frequent Flyer Member but they don't fly into Asia from ADL direct anymore so I won't use them.
I'd like to find something that will not automatically expire if possible as I use Singapore Airlines if I can get as good a deal as Malaysian.

But is not 100% up to date. However it is updated from time to time.
From that you should be able to check which FFP's have miles that expire with no activity (often 18 months) or expire after a set time, like SQ. Aegean Miles & Bonus is popular with the guys on AFF
Lounge Access is often by status (or business class) so hard to get flying discount economy
Even thought QF no longer have ADL internationial flights, you can earn QF points on Cathay, Malaysian and other OneWorld airlines when flying eligible fares.
