This works for me.
I cut this out of an old program I was trying.

Button.new(panel, -1, “Öйú”, Point.new(10,125), Size.new(100,25))

Assuming you’re using wxruby2, which you should be, ensure that your
script is in UTF8 encoding, and that you have $KCODE = ‘u’ at the top of
it.

Have a look at the demo samples/text/unicode.rb which demonstrates the
use of controls with labels and content in numerous different scripts
including Chinese.

The wxruby-users mailing list is a good place for any questions about
the toolkit:
