Female going topless in the country (4)
I believe the answer is:
oman
'country' is the definition.
(I know that Oman is a Asian country)
'female going topless' is the wordplay.
'female' becomes 'woman' (woman is a kind of female).
'going topless' means to remove the first letter.
'woman' with its first letter taken away is 'OMAN'.
'in the' is the link.
(Other definitions for oman that I've seen before include "Sultanate, capital Muscat" , "Gulf sultanate" , "Land" , "Middle Eastern country" , "Arabian peninsula country" .)
