Army man in action for Asian country (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

myanmar

'asian country' is the definition.
(Myanmar is an example)

'army man in action' is the wordplay.
'in action' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'army'+'man'='armyman'
'armyman' with letters rearranged gives 'MYANMAR'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for myanmar that I've seen before include "Country on the Bay of Bengal" , "Far East location" , "Modern name for Burma" , "Yangon is its capital" , "Another name for Burma" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
