Objecting to China being full of noise (7)

I believe the answer is:

minding

'objecting to' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'china being full of noise' is the wordplay.
'china' becomes 'ming' (I've seen this before).
'being full of' indicates putting letters inside.
'noise' becomes 'din' (din is a kind of noise).
'ming' going around 'din' is 'MINDING'.

(Another definition for minding that I've seen is " Objecting".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
