Silverlight displaying asia language?

My application require 2 different asia language support: Chinese and Tamil.

It should be able to cater for change without compiling, something like java's resource bundle. In this case, if I input unicode on a external file and get silverlight to read as string, will silverlight be able to parse it correctly?

Or I can use the chinese/ tamil characte开发者_JAVA百科rs directly in the external file, but I'm not sure how to retrieve these characters in code.

Anyway these language will be shown on the same screen, so I don't think localization will help.

Just place the content in Xml (probably Xaml Resource dictionary) using the default UTF-8 encoding.
