SIA in W class - which program?

I'm flying LHR-SIN-DPS and back in W class. 15604 miles according to SIA.

I'm a non-status member of bmi Diamond Club (needing 9904 more status miles to re-acquire silver status) and a silver/frequent traveller level member of Lufthansa Miles & More (a long way off miles needed to renew).

According to their websites, bmi will award ZERO miles and Lufthansa only 50% of mileage, plus the 25% executive bonus.

Am I right in thinking that if I join KrisFlyer that I'd get 100% of mileage flown?

So, is it worth joining?

At the moment I've been getting 100% mileage (but not status) with bmi Diamond Club for heavily discounted economy trips on Virgin Atlantic - would that still happen via SIA KrisFlyer? Just trying to work out if the DPS miles might get marooned in yet another account!

Thanks!
Paul.
