Are nets ordered from Asia? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eastern

'from asia?' is the definition.
(Asia is in the east)

'are nets ordered' is the wordplay.
'ordered' is an anagram indicator.
'are'+'nets'='arenets'
'arenets' is an anagram of 'EASTERN'.

(Other definitions for eastern that I've seen before include "Possibly Japanese" , "from afar" , "in Beijing, possibly" , "From Japan, say" , "See 11" .)
