Add a page directive at the top:
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=BIG5" %>
This also sets the charater encoding that will be sent to the browser, so
that it knows how to interpret the content.
In JSP 1.2 (i.e. Tomcat 4) you can also set a "pageEncoding" attribute in
the page directive, in case the page itself is encoded in a character set
different than what you want to set in the response (which is still set
with the contentType attribute).
