Interesting..

I've had /24s for customers before, with APNIC's multi-homing  
assignments.

http://www.apnic.net/info/faq/multihoming_faq.html

<snip>
There is no absolute maximum or minimum assignment size, but please  
note that APNIC cannot guarantee the routability of any assignment it  
makes. Assignments less than /24 are not practical and will generally  
be filtered. If you are close to meeting the minimum allocation size (/ 
21), you may find it more economical to become an APNIC member and  
apply for a portable allocation using the APNIC IPv4 ISP request form.

Note that you must be the end user of the space, as it is assigned not  
allocated.
