English and Irish visiting China and Dubai, for example (7)
I believe the answer is:
emirate
'dubai for example' is the definition.
(Dubai is an emirate of the United Arab Emirates)
'english and irish visiting china' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'irish' becomes 'IR' (abbreviation).
'visiting' is an insertion indicator.
'china' becomes 'mate' (china plate is Cockney rhyming slang for mate).
'ir' going within 'mate' is 'mirate'.
'e'+'mirate'='EMIRATE'
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for emirate that I've seen before include "Arab domain" , "Eg, Dubai" , "Such as Abu Dhabi or Dubai" , "Arab territory" , "Muslim country, such as Kuwait" .)
