I arrived in Cambodia at REP and wouldn't have missed the visa process for the world. You had a dozen officials sat around a semicircular counter. The first one supervised everyone. The next one handed out application cards. The next one received applications. The one next to that took the money. The next one entered details. The next one rubber stamped something. Then a sticker. Then a few stamps. The penultimate one gives you the passport back and the final one makes sure everything is OK.
As I say, it would have been a shame to miss all that.
