In many cases this won't matter. If you want to credit to a program that different than your status program, you hand them your physical card instead of relying on your boarding pass, I've only heard of a few instances where the staff will insist you have to credit to the status program to use the status benefits. For things like priority luggage, etc., most airlines are able to add a different frequent flyer number for earning vs status in their system so it would still recognize you as *G and allow you to credit to AS. In the case though of your flight, neither matters since you'll have access to the *A lounge in LAX and SKL in SIN anyway based on your ticketed class, just credit to AS and reap the rewards.
