Why are you specifying the collation to be "C" when the default db encoding
is UTF8, and UTF-8 has Greek, Chinese and English encodings?

Hello all,
I have a question regarding the definition of the type of a character
field in a table and more specifically about its collation and UTF-8
characters and strings.
Let's say that the definition is for example as follows:
name character varying(8) COLLATE pg_catalog."C" NOT NULL
and also assume that the database default encoding is UTF8 and also the
Collate and Ctype is "C"". I plan to store strings of various languages in
this field.
Are these the correct settings that I should have used on creation of
the database?.
Thank you in Advance!
Kindest regards,
