American English because it's more commonly used! (Clearly though I'm biased though because I live in America :D)

English isn't the hardest language but it has poor phonetics, meaning that one letter could make different sounds. There are lots of tenses but they are formed fairly simply. Which variety you would be able to use more depends on how you will use English. Singapore and Malaysia prefer British English but you might not really care about them and just go with US English, which has a large international influence.
