In a way, we, the students and alumni of BUET are very very lucky. We got a world class education for only about a total of 10,000 taka or less. Most of it is refunded as scholarships. I still remember that the rent for my dorm room was only taka 55. No, that's not even per month, it's per year!!!
The hidden truth is, there's no free lunch. The "free" education was funded by the poorest of the poor people of Bangladesh. So, it is our duty to return something for the people of Bangladesh. Alumni of BUET already do that ... for example, the Intel Bangladesh Association has created a great lab at the EEE department. The contributions need not be monetary, it is possible to help students or other people in many different ways. Bangladesh doesn't have a good web presence, you can work towards building it by contributing to Wikipedia. In any case, we must remember the faith our people put on us ... that's a big responsibility.
