It might help if some of the Chinese or Taiwanese carriers are member of the program, or I could earn miles on some non-alliance members like MH, EK or VS (earning already through SQ).

Any suggestion? A easy-earned status is also very welcome!
For easy status I would recommend FB, 40k EQMs is gold = lounge access on Skyteam worldwide. MH is a partner and might even join ST in the future. With C-class you only earn 150% EQMs, some programs will give you 200%, that is the downside.
