Default How to Convert English website and DB in Arabic

HI,
I have developed a website in PHP and MySQL in English language. Now i want to launch its Arabic version, can you please guide me what necessary steps i have to follow? should i have to make 2 databases in MySQL or can only 1 database be sufficient? What will happen in case of data insertion. do i have to enter all data in tables every 2 times?
Also do i have to make a new website for Arabic from scratch?
Any help would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.
I have an English Language PC. should i need an Arabic language PC separately?

PHP doesn't support multiple character encodings or wide characters, so you can't really use it for multinational sites where unicode (or other wide character sets) are required...

Take care,
