For English XML Parsing working fine But for Japanese response it gives me error in Parsing XML And not data will be displayed.

Please suggest any way to solve this.

I am using below code for get response from Google Suggest API.

NSString *strUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://google.com/complete/search?output=toolbar&q=ア"];

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:[strUrl stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSString * urlData = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url];

// Print the data that get from google suggest api.
NSLog(@"URL Data :: %@", urlData);

Thanks.
