I am looking forward to flying Singapore Airlines, hopefully next year.

From 1971 to 2005 I logged thousands of miles with Asian airlines while living in HK, Manila, Singapore and Bangalore. All of the Asian airlines have had more pilot error type issues than the US. The expansion of their airlines has been so rapid that their pilots do not have as many hours and due to the culture junior officers are much less likely to correct more senior officers.
The situation gets tighter after an accident and then they loosen up again.
Overall..still pretty safe way to travel.
