The best way to earn Asia Miles is now by transfering Starpoints.
50K of spending on the SPG Amex = BA transatlantic J ticket return
75K of spending on SPG Amex for BA First.
You can also credit all your AA and AS domestic tickets to Asia Miles - BA and other internationally, earn Asia Miles from hotel stays, dining, and car rentals.
My best advice understanding their program is carefully study their website.
I have made several long posts concerning AsiaMiles in Milesbuzz over the past year. While the EAP program is no longer an earning source you may find my posts helpful.

AsiaMiles is a great program in that it (1) offers some favorable redemption rates, e.g. business class from the Eastern US to most parts of Europe on BA for 60k miles (2) allows you to upgrade on a variety of carriers.
It was great when you could earn AsiaMiles with Priceline bids via eBay Anything Points and Points.com. Imagine roughly 38 succesful bids you were making anyway (for yourself and others) yielding a free business class ticket to Europe.
There are also some downside quirks to the program, like expiring miles.
