If that is the deal, just use Jcode available via CPAN. And
use Jcode;
$iso_2022_jp = jcode($utf8, 'utf8')->iso_2022_jp;
Unfortunately, Unicode::String (and Unicode::Map8) cannot handle 16-bit
CJKV strings (and that's the reason why I developed Jcode).
Also note iso-2022-jp is NOT shift jis. It is jis encoding without
so-called hankaku kana.
If you want to learn more about CJKV encodings, see Ken Lunde's book
