on Display fields tab
content/types/event/display

i have got 2 Node Reference some fields that are not exist on -unlike the others

Manage fields
admin/content/types/event/fields
therefore they are not editable, removable or not functioning/exist on submitting this content (event this case) and other types

field types in question is Node Reference, but its not the case for other Node Reference
field that work perfectly

wonder anyone else experience similar, if this is bug or something could be wrong on the fields database tables that makes some fields not functioning, editable or removable

I second this. I have 3 node reference fields and two of them are not showing up on the "Manage Fields" page, HOWEVER they do show up on the "Display Fields" page. I will focus on what is different between these fields and hopefully come back with some more insight.

This was due to the fact that I had adjusted core code to allow for weights in excess of what is normally allowed (-5 to +5). CCK has hard-coded a limit of +/- 10, so that would have to be adjusted in order to show the additional fields in this menu.

Right. CCK deliberately limits its range to +10 to -10 to avoid picking up things like the workflow fieldset and other things irrelevant to the manage fields screen. If you manually change your code to set a weight outside this range, you're on your own, since it won't show up on the screen unless you also manually change the code that creates that screen.
