Chinese OS: Read the manual on how to set the default character set and
language in mysql.
English OS: You will need to build a UI to be able to enter Chinese
characters. Chinese characters should go in as ASCII garbage but will be
displayed as Chinese characters on a Chinese OS without any problems. If it
does not go in as ASCII garbage, you may then have a problem. If you create
web pages, make sure you set the correct character set.
Cheers
Rolf
