I administer the GPStogo scheme.  Please read about the scheme here
http://foundation.openstreetmap.org/gpstogo/ and send me some details of the
people who would be interested in receiving a GPS unit.

 announcement to my Cambodian friends at facebook but it was already too
 late.

 But I got some feedback from students studying Land Management and
 Geomatics.

 My question:
 Is there a possibility to send free GPS Dataloggers to Cambodia?
 Most people in Cambodia are not rich and I'm also not rich.

 Is there are program to provide GPS devices to developing countries?

Hi Bernhard,

Check out the GPStogo program of the OpenStreetMap Foundation:

There are a bunch of GPS data loggers which are relatively  
inexpensive.  I tested the AMOD AGL-3080 
(http://community.cloudmade.com/blog/2009/03/03/the-amod-agl3080-data-logger/ 
) and it works a champ with GPSBabel and OSM.  Uses three AAA  
batteries.  US$70 and I expect 70 Euros as well).

But of course you should ask the foundation first, because they have a  
supply of donated receivers.
