Need Advice
I fly already many years with TG , i am TG*GOLD , but i future i will fly probably more SQ then Thai, what is adviceable to do.
Become SQ Frequent Flyer and stay also TG Frequent Flyer,
but what to do with credit my miles. Because when I fly TG the miles will be credit to TG , and when I fly with SQ, the miles will be credit to SQ,
Calculate the Flights together i have miles enough, but show then seperate, it will be maximum of Silver
so will loose my *G status and not allow to visit the Lounges anymore.
Does i think right or does i think wrong or what to do..
please advice
I know, for the upgrade i can use point i accumulate by the airline i booked.

You don't have to credit miles from TG flights to TG, or miles from SQ flights to SQ. You can pick one *A programme and credit miles from flying other *A airlines to that programme. In this way you may be able to retain your *G.
You can also use points/miles collected in one programme to upgrade on flights on other *A airlines.

So set things clear, i will book a flight with SQ , because I am TG*Gold Member i can use the credits i used on Thai Flights for eventually upgrade on a SQ Flight.
Because for me is better to fly to fly with SQ from CDG-SIN-DVO instead of TG from CDG-BKK-MNL-DVO
this saves me one stopover and changing the Terminals in MNL.

Yes, you can upgrade your SQ flights with miles from your TG account. Just be sure that the ticket you buy from SQ is upgradable, and you have enough miles on your TG account to do so.
I think this will be the chart you need to look at to see how many miles are needed:
