You can see on the shakemap Taipei has an MMI of close to 4, which corresponds to: "Felt indoors by many, outdoors by few during the day: At night, some are awakened. Dishes, windows, and doors are disturbed; walls make cracking sounds. Sensations are like a heavy truck striking a building. Standing motor cars are rocked noticeably."
Coming back to this I understand now you were referring to Taiwan's own intensity scale and not some recalculated magnitude - my bad! Wanted to clear up that I wasn't dunking on Taiwan's measurements. Their own intensity scale is likely better tuned for the region.
