Pagunsan, who finished third in Thailand last week, had four birdies, including one on the 18th, against two bogeys for a 210 total, eight strokes off solo leader Adam Blyth of Australia.
Angelo Que had a 69 but was in a share of 37th place at 212 while Frankie Miñoza settled for a 72 and a tie for 48th at 214. Mars Pucay, at 13th at the start of the day, tumbled with a 77 and is now at 59th place at 216.
