Normally standard organizations (international, national or industrial)
do not publish their standards for free. That's why you can rarely find
any formal standard on internet. You should be able to buy the published
gb18030 standard from "the publisher of China standards".
As a native mainland chinese, I feel terribly embarrassed and shamed that
I have to learn the standard through english documents. Since living in
the wrong side of Pacific ocean, I'm still waiting for my friend to bring
a copy to me.
