  No, you cannot expect that result for obvious reasons !
if that name is represented with those 4 chars in BIG5, since the
result is encoded in UTF8 (there is no encoding declaration) it cannot
represent this same name with the same characters in that encoding,
this is plain wrong.
  I think you should read read some documentation on encodings
and XML/XSLT. Try a book or ask the XSL list, as explained at:
     http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/bugs.html
