Pakistani VOA for 24 Nationalities.
 
Couldnt find the news in English but it says Government of Pakistan changed its policy and would be issuing Visa on Arrival to nationals of 24 countries including US and UK.
Apparently it is for groups only, however a positive development.

The VOA is available only if you've pre-booked with a travel agency, which will have to do its homework. But this can be worked out.

This have been in place for a few years (for fewer countries), so the question is: does it work only in airports or also at land borders (i.e., Waggah, Taftan, Khunjerab).

E.g., the Chinese may not let you go up the pass if they don't see a visa in your passport, has anybody tried it ? I'd be interested in first-hand accounts.
