Set the system character setup to the one you want to use, also it can
be possible to set it in your default shell config too (~/.bash_rc).

This is all I have done to ensure the character setup that I want to
use, I have switched from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8, this eased the trouble
when using Chinese in a Fenno-Scandinavian environment.

Keep in mind that the UTF-8 support gets better day for day, it's not as
bad as it was in Redhat8.
