You'll have to mark the routes you receive on 'import', and act on those
markers on 'export'.
I've spoken a bit about how to make robust routing policies, I hope this
is of use to you:

https://ripe77.ripe.net/presentations/59-RIPE77_Snijders_Routing_Policy_Architecture.pdf
Specifically in your example, I've added the use of BGP Large
Communities to help arrange what announcements go where, please compare
this untested example with your own deployment: http://paste.debian.net/1086041/
Kind regards,
Job
