How to prevent apache from auto decode URI?

I have a Java servlet webapp which will talk with apache using
mod_proxy. It need to read the URI, which sometime contains multibyte
character, like Big5 Chinese character.

I encode the URI using Java URLEncoder, but sometime apache will try
to decode it but fail to provide correct result. How can I tell apache
don't decode it so that I can handle it myself at java?
