Please read the documentation (preferably before asking questions):
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/multibyte.html>

The EUC_CN encoding can be used for Simplified Chineses. GB18030, which
I understand is the Chinese national standard for software products, and
GBK, which also supports Simplified Chinese, can be used as a client
encoding, but not as a server encoding.

cheers
