The default from Sarge was ISO-8859-1 but Etch's default is utf-8.

But as was mentioned, you can reconfigure your system locales.
locales describe a set composed of your location, language and language 
encoding:
ru_RU.KOI8-R
means Russian in Russia using KOI8-R encoding

Here CN is China, HK is Hong Kong and TW is Tiwan. big5 is for 'big 5
encoding'.

zh_CN.gb18030
zh_CN.gbk
zh_CN.UTF-8
zh_HK.big5
zh_HK.UTF-8
zh_TW.big5
zh_TW.UTF-8

You may want 'zh_CN.UTF-8'. There is also the choice between simplified
chinese and traditional chinese.

If you want to use input Chinese, you will also need to add support for
a chinese-compatible input method.
