That page doesn't help me. :(

Answer 3

There is stated:

The constants VbStrConv.Wide, VbStrConv.Narrow, VbStrConv.SimplifiedChinese, VbStrConv.TraditionalChinese, VbStrConv.Katakana, and VbStrConv.Hiragana can cause run-time errors when used in locales where they do not apply

Probably only local Chinese persons can help you. I see the Chinese MSFT's passes always questions as it is about Chinese, I don't know why. 

However, you can try to do this. You have yourself to find the correct parameters (like in English en-US) for those Chinese culture dependend languages.

I won't say it helps, but in your case I would give it a try with all possibilities.
