What you will see
Kēng Tung is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 17:46:48 local time, the Moon hides 0.8% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 17:32:51 and ends at 18:00:39, 28 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 9° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Kēng Tung.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 3,820 km south of Kēng Tung.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is El Dibir, about 5,281 km west, where totality lasts 3 m 26 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
