convert Japanese to Ascii

I have a UTF8 MySQL query set and I would like it converted to strictly ascii (using the HTML special character codes like 東北 for the Japanese text ) The MySQL should be ready to run in the way you deliver. I think this should be pretty easy but I don't have the way to do it and don't want to do it by hand.? If you can, please help :) ## Deliverables text file MySQL ready to run
