OpenNLP: foreign names does not get recognized

Viewed 4362

I just started using openNLP to recognize names. I am using the model (en-ner-person.bin) that comes with open NLP. I noticed that while it recognizes us, uk, and european names, it fails to recognize Indian or Japanese names. My questions are (1) is there already models available that I can use to recognize foreign names (2) If not, then I believe I will need to generate new models. In that case, is there a copora available that I can use?
