OK, the problem is somewhat solved. I modified my db connectivity class and added the following query right after the connection is established: set names utf8
Now all data appears in arabic on teh site, database, and phpmyadmin. But this has the slight disadvantage of needing to run that query after each connection. I'm using HTML_QuickForm, most of my select elements already use loadQuery to populate themselves, and since i'm using load query creates a new connection, all the data appears in gibberish. But at least, i can modify those and populate teh list manually. so i guess problem solved. any comments?
