Doesn't sound like you're going "around the world". To buy an RTW
you'll end up having to go through the Americas to get home. That will
take an extra couple of days.

RTW fares vary according to where you start. Buy passing through
Australia normally adds about $1,000 to the RTW fare. Plus, RTWs don't
allow back-tracking. You might get away with Australia and Thailand as
side trips while passing through Singapore, but I expect you'll end up
paying extra for NZ and Fiji (or buying them as separate tickets).

Suggest you go through a travel agent.
