Asian leader mostly fit to receive investment from European country and yen (3,3)
I believe the answer is:
suu kyi
'asian leader mostly fit to receive investment from european' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'country and yen' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'country' could be 'uk' (UK is an example) and 'uk' is present in the answer.
'yen' could be 'y' and 'y' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'sui' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
