cambodia

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'country' is the definition.
(I know that Cambodia is a country)

'caught paramedic with foreign aid' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'paramedic with' becomes 'ambo' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'foreign' indicates anagramming the letters (foreign order of the letters).
'aid' anagrammed gives 'dia'.
'c'+'ambo'+'dia'='CAMBODIA'

Can you help me to learn more?
