Hi I wish to print Japanese characters in HTML file as a crawl content. I tried to encode using both (cp1252) and (UTF-8) while printing in HTML, however I can't see those Japanese characters in that, instead I am getting some junk values. For example " 【外資系転職の " is printed as " ÂyŠOŽ‘Œn“] ". Thanks in advance 

use strict;
use warnings;
use HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath;
use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request;
use HTML::Entities;
use HTML::Strip;
use Encode qw( decode_utf8 encode_utf8 );

open( OUT, '>:utf8', "C:/Users/jeyakuma/Desktop/test1.html" );
my $URL = 'http://job.japantimes.com/';

my $agent    = LWP::UserAgent->new( agent => "Mozilla/5.0" );
my $request  = HTTP::Request->new( GET => $URL );
my $response = $agent->request($request);

# Check the outcome of the response
if ( $response->is_success ) {

    my $xp = HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath->new_from_content( $response->de
+coded_content );
    my $raw_html = $xp->findnodes_as_string( '//td[@class="text12"]');

    my $hs = HTML::Strip->new();
    my $clean_text = $hs->parse($raw_html);
    $clean_text = decode_utf8($hs->parse(encode_utf8($raw_html)));
    $hs->eof;
    print OUT $clean_text;

}
elsif ( $response->is_error ) {
    print "Error:$URL\n";
    print $response->error_as_HTML;
}
