Strange, it works for me :

hannu@hannu-900X3E:~/workspace/my-app$ psql
psql (9.3beta2, server 9.2.4)
Type "help" for help.

hannu=# select * from pg_stat_activity;
hannu=# show client_encoding ;
 client_encoding
-----------------
 UTF8
(1 row)

hannu=# create table tchinese(data text);
CREATE TABLE
hannu=# insert into tchinese values('漢語1-3漢語');
INSERT 0 1
hannu=# select * from tchinese ;
    data
-------------
 漢語1-3漢語
(1 row)

hannu=# \q


Are you sure that the client-encoding is also the same when you are
actually doing the import ?

Or when you are getting the wrong results when reading

what does length() of the bad field give you ?

hannu=# select data, length(data) from tchinese ;
    data     | length
-------------+--------
 漢語1-3漢語 |      7
(1 row)
