It should although it may be not so nice looking.

Hmmm... current unstable lacks Chinese tasks???
No no it is under:
 * Simplified Chinese desktop
 * Traditional Chinese desktop

e.g. Here:
i     ttf-arphic-ukai                                      0.2.200802 0.2.200802
i     ttf-arphic-uming                                     0.2.200802 0.2.200802
i     unifont                                              1:5.1.2008 1:5.1.2008
i     x-ttcidfont-conf                                     32         32
p     xfonts-efont-unicode                                 <none>     0.4.0-5
p     xfonts-intl-chinese                                  <none>     1.2.1-6
p     xfonts-wqy                                           <none>     0.9.9-3.1

Few other things to consider are:
 * Fist do you have system set up for one of UTF-8 locales?
 * I am not EMACS user but are you setting EMACS to use UTF-8? (Emacs uses very
   special internal encoding system)

>From other angle, my common sense tells me to install are ones listed
under "l" dialogue with:
 ~Gculture::taiwanese~Gmade-of::data:font
under aptitude.

I have
 ttf-arphic-ukai
 ttf-arphic-uming
 ttf-unifont
 unifont
 xfonts-unifont
installed.

You may want to consider:
 latex-cjk-all
 chdrvfont
 ttf-arphic-bkai00mp
 ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp
 xfonts-cmex-big5p
 xfonts-intl-chinese

PS: I do not use Chinese nor understand Chinese.  I can only guess some
of it just like English speaking people can guess some French text by
using borrowed words.
