I don’t like that about remote place (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

yukon

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

'remote place' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'i don't like that about' is the wordplay.
'i don't like' becomes 'yuk' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'that about' becomes 'on' (as in a book 'on' a certain topic).
'yuk'+'on'='YUKON'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for yukon that I've seen before include "Canadian territory, famed for the 1897 gold rush" , "Klondike region of Canada" , "Territory of northwest Canada" , "Canadian region" , "North American territory" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
