So how do regular browsers issue POST requests for those "Asian customers" ?

If you figure that out first and tell me, I'm sure I'll be able to tell you
how to make curl do that for you!

The only way I know is for non-latin pages to have a META tag with an
enctype attribute
defining the encoding and use POST.
There's --data-binary, but that means doing some ad-hoc decoding.
Maybe the question is what should the HTML FORM look like for it to be
accessible via -F,
so that one can specify the encoding in the content-type, eg:
content=@file;text/plain;charset=euc-kr (Korean).
