PS. I do not want to offend anyone - FYI only so folks would not be disappointed...
I think HKT is routed either DOH - HKT direct or DOH - BKK - HKT. Not via KUL.

Also you can still presumably get pre-sloshed on the flight OSL - DOH and then subsequently DOH - SIN? So I would say avoid a long stopover in DOH during this time, but otherwise really not a big deal.
