TLDR : Answer Summary
Applying for a DTV visa in Phnom Penh may not be advisable due to the rising tensions between Thailand and Cambodia, as a potential war could complicate return travel to Thailand. Some commenters suggest that while Phnom Penh is preferable to other locations like Tokyo or KL, it's still better to consider other options.

If a war does start you might as well wipe your bum with the visa application as you will not be returning to Thailand anyway. Your best hope is that they solve the issue through the Joint Border Comission
