Question How can I change the collation in the database

Deal all,

When installing Kunena 1.0.8 for the first time in my production site, I found that the collation for all my kunena in the database (e.g. xx_fb_announcement...) displayed as "latin1_swedish_ci", this caused me having problem to type in a foreign language like chinese. I have to change one by one the collation of kunena to "utf8_general_ci" so that it can support the language. Though I have reinstalled it many times, even to delete completely the kunena from the database and installed again, but the collation still be generated as "latin1_swedish_ci".

I have tested in another way, I installed kunena on a new copy of joomla and to my surprise, that this kunena's collation was installed as "utf8_general_ci" as I wanted. So, does anyone know what's problem in between? How can I resolve this problem on my production site instead of building all over again on the new joomla to avoid the problem. Thanks in advance.
