Sorry I can't recall.  

Did it again on terminal (Konsole);

$ mkdir ~/.xinput.d
$ cd ~/.xinput.d
$ ln -s /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim default

$ ls -l ~/.xinput.d/default
lrwxrwxrwx 1 satimis satimis 28 May  4 15:36
/home/satimis/.xinput.d/default -> /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim

The symlink is there.

On the same terminal (konsole);
$ echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8

$ export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM
$ kedit
kedit started

Still can't input Chinese.  [Ctrl]+[Space] had no effect.  

Exited kedit
ScimInputContextPlugin()
~ScimInputContextPlugin()

$ gedit
gedit started with the same result.  Unable inputing Chinese on English
locale.
