From October 2011 to May 2012 he commanded Tonga's third contingent to Afghanistan and was stationed at Camp Bastion.[4][5]
In 2015 Aleamotuʻa was appointed to the title of Lord Fielakepa by King Tupou VI in 2015 following the death of his older brother of Sosaia Tupou Aleamotuʻa.[6] The appointment was challenged by his nephew Tupou Tongaliuaki Filoʻaulo Aleamotuʻa, and in December 2015 the Land Court ruled in the latter's favour.[1][7] The decision was upheld by the Privy Council of Tonga in August 2016.[8][9][10]
Aleamotuʻa is a member of the Privy Council of Tonga.[11]
