2) civil service is also pretty fair with pay. They will not undercut you just because you are on a much lower package now. It will be comensurate with your qualifications and experience.
3) I was an overseas scholar too, top student from a top London uni. I left in between to join the private sector, then rejoined the service with about 7 years working experience. I was offered slightly more than 6.5k base. Average annual bonuses at my board are 4-5 months. I got about 7 months in my first year. I reckon you should get offered around 5.5-6k. Hence your annual should easily hit at least 80k.
In fact, I think you would be looked on favorably for having chosen to serve out your bond. Shows that you are not a job hopper.

Hi Towers,
Which private sector domain were you in prior to re-joining the public service?
Could also you loosely reveal which government agency made you the 6.5K offer?
Were you on the specialist scheme or MX track upon your return to the statutory board?
