Actually, in OS/2, Netscape can read Chinese (both versions) and  Japanese
as well as a whole host of other languages if you install the TNR MT30
Unicode font, set the proper font associations and change the document
encoding appropriately.

In Windows, if you have MSWord with the Asian Font support installed, the
Chinese and Japanese fonts are available to the system and Netscape can
be set to use them.
