The Sultan and his high-ranking officials including Nor, were given a formal welcome by Governor-General Quentin Bryce at Government House in Canberra on 2 May 2013.[4] In February 2019, Wan Azizah and her diginitaries were greeted by Nor, Permanent Secretary and Chief of Protocol at the MOFAT.[5] On 26 to 28 March 2019, he was one of the Bruneian delegates visiting Vietnam at Nguyễn Phú Trọng's invitation.[6] [7]

On 23 November 2020, in front of Nor's husband and family, at the Japanese Embassy in Brunei Darussalam, Ambassador Eiji Yamamoto bestowed upon Nor the Order of the Rising Sun.[8] After his tenure in Japan, he was reappointed as the permanent secretary and Chief of Protocol at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.[9]
