Should I consider status matching with TK to get Miles&Smiles Elite? (TK*G) Has anyone else with *G tried to status match with Miles&Smiles? Already read the status matcher website which seems to be legit.

Thank you all

Thai Airways is majority-owned by the Thai government through shares held by the Ministry of Finance. Turning a profit is desirable but not necessary.
