Step 1 : Remove the first line

<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%> // remove this line

and put following line in your head tag

<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
    ...
</head>

Step 2 : Make sure your jsp page's encoding is UTF-8, right click jsp page, properties and select UTF-8 as encoding.

Step 3: [Optional if you are not using database] If you are using database, make sure the database's collation is utf-8, otherwise database will not store your non English data.
