Which has better Chinese support? RH 7.1 / MDK 8.0

I am a newbie to Linux. I am planning to install it on my laptop to play around with it. My choice for distribution is narrowed down to either RH 7.1 or MDK 8.0, which I heard that both are pretty good for newbies. I want the OS itself to be English, I just want to be able to display Chinese fonts (both GB and Big5) and input Chinese on it, especially in browsers and emails. I don't know how RH/MDK handles this. I want the easiest way to set it up, maybe something like the NJStar program in Windows that does it all(input/display) for you, or I have to download fonts myself (kind of like MS Update that let you download language support). I looked at distrowatch.com and found both RH and MDK has multi-language support, does that mean it comes with Chinese fonts already? So all I need is a Chinese input software? Can anyone point to me some websites about how to set this up? Thanks for any suggestions.
 
I think the language support on the desktop has more to do with KDE or Gnome than the linux distribution itself. They should both be pretty much equal.
