Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Mahmoud Elkasabi and Ruilin Ren:
We do not have the required information for these two surveys because we never had access to the entire sampling frame. For the Myanmar survey, the sample was selected from a master sample. DHS was only given the master sample allocation, which is given in table A.3 in the final report. For the Pakistan 2017-18 survey, DHS was not given the number of households in the selected clusters in the sample file.
Our guidelines for estimating multi-level weights do not extend to this kind of situation with such incomplete information about the sampling frame. You may be able to find some other approach, but unfortunately we cannot help.
