This century's longest total solar eclipse can be observed as partial solar eclipse in Malaysia between 8.23am and 9.48am tomorrow.

However, it would be difficult to view the phenomenon with naked eyes as only 17.8 per cent of the sun would be obscured by the moon,the northern part of Peninsular Malaysia would be the best place to observe the eclipse.

The total solar eclipse, which would last for six minutes and 39 seconds, would pass through Ryuku Islands in Japan and through the Pacific Ocean and the moon's umbral shadow would begin covering India and then Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar and China.
