His 10-year career with the Wasps culminated in the shock 2-1 win against Sarawak in the final of the 1999 Malaysia Cup.[6] This achievement was chronicled in FIFA 192: The True Story Behind the Legend of Brunei Darussalam National Football Team, a book by British author Stanley Park.[7]

Rosanan left the national representative side in 2000.[8] He returned to Kota Ranger as player-coach a year later,[9] and was also given opportunities to coach Bruneian exhibition sides at the time.[10] He hung up his boots in 2003 and moved to AH United a year later, starting a six-year tenure in which he won the Brunei FA Cup in 2006.[11][12]

Hired by BAFA as a coach in 2009, Rosanan was assigned various coaching positions since, such as the Brunei Youth Team that played in the domestic league (2009–2011),[13] the Under-21s (2012),[14] and the Under-15s as assistant coach (2013).[15] He was assistant to Kwon Oh-son for the Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy competitions for the U21s in 2012 and 2014.[16][17] He received the Order of Setia Negara Brunei Fourth Class for his part in winning the competition in 2012.[18]

In the 2021 Brunei Super League season, he coached Panchor Murai FC.[19]

Between March and September 2022, he was the head coach of the Brunei national football team, taking charge of friendlies against Laos and Malaysia.[20] The following year, he was appointed as head coach of AKSE Bersatu.[21]
