My understanding of this poll is that we are voting for the most influential economy. How a strong economy is defined is beyond my understanding and reading.

But IMHO, the two really up and coming economies (China and India) are driven by consumers in the west (most notably the US of A). I mean, if all businesses in the US decided to terminate software contracts with Indian companies, that would have an adverse effect on the economy. Same is the case with China and its massive exports...

NAME

       Encode::CN - China-based Chinese Encodings

SYNOPSIS

	   use Encode qw/encode decode/;
	   $euc_cn = encode("euc-cn", $utf8);	# loads Encode::CN implicitly
	   $utf8   = decode("euc-cn", $euc_cn); # ditto

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements China-based Chinese charset encodings.  Encodings supported are as follows.

	 Canonical   Alias	       Description
	 --------------------------------------------------------------------
	 euc-cn      /euc.*cn$/i     EUC (Extended Unix Character)
		 /cn.*euc$/i
		     /GB[-_ ]?2312(?:D.*$|$)/i (see below)
	 gb2312-raw		       The raw (low-bit) GB2312 character map
	 gb12345-raw		       Traditional chinese counterpart to
		       GB2312 (raw)
	 iso-ir-165		       GB2312 + GB6345 + GB8565 + additions
	 MacChineseSimp 	       GB2312 + Apple Additions
	 cp936			       Code Page 936, also known as GBK
		       (Extended GuoBiao)
	 hz			       7-bit escaped GB2312 encoding
	 --------------------------------------------------------------------

       To find how to use this module in detail, see Encode.

NOTES

       Due to size concerns, "GB 18030" (an extension to "GBK") is distributed separately on CPAN, under the name Encode::HanExtra. That module
       also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.

BUGS

       When you see "charset=gb2312" on mails and web pages, they really mean "euc-cn" encodings.  To fix that, "gb2312" is aliased to "euc-cn".
       Use "gb2312-raw" when you really mean it.

       The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.
