Chinese term or phrase: ~{1>1(Q6~}
This is a phrase that usually appears at the beginning of a newspaper article. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

English translation:unreadable code/ garbled code
Explanation:
Usually used to refer to garbled code (as in ~{1>1(Q6~}, above). Is that what the article is about - Asian-encoded texts that are messed up?

If this phrase is really in front of all the articles in the newspaper then disregard this suggestion.

No. 乱码 (luan ma) was the comment from jyuan_us as the Chinese I typed didn't display correctly. Thanks anyway.
