Considering a nested run of:

DOH-CMB-HKG/CAN-CMB-DOH (ticket 2)
DOH-CMB-CGK/HKG (ticket 1 i/b)

Which should net me either 1120 tps, or 1160 if I can get HKG-CAN to price (without the HKG-CAN leg Google flights reckons the total cost is ~£1470 if my last flight is back to CMB (i.e. £1.31/TP), or ~£1785 if my last leg is back to HKG (so £1.59/TP). Would need to get avios positioning (from HKG) to CGK but shouldn't be an issue.
Matrix may suggest an itinerary with a HKG-CAN thrown in, but it raises the overall cost by close to 200 GBP, for a flight which you can obtain easily for 4500 Avios and a few quid.

Are you you planning on B2B in DOH on the separate tickets?
