This should work?

(not ip.geoip.country in {"TW" "SG"}) or (not cf.bot_management.verified_bot) or (not http.user_agent contains "GoogleBot")

(not ip.geoip.country in {"TW" "SG"}) or (not cf.bot_management.verified_bot) or (not http.user_agent contains "GoogleBot")

(cf.bot_management.verified_bot and http.user_agent contains "GoogleBot")

(cf.bot_management.verified_bot and http.user_agent contains "GoogleBot")

Yeah, I read it as they only wanted GoogleBot to bypass the country-level block, but I can see how that question was ambiguous, mb
