Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Mahmoud Elkasabi:

It is true the final report of the 2017 Philippines DHS does not provide the average PSU size by strata. For this case it is OK to use the average per region from Table A.1 as approximation for M_h.

Regarding the households selected per stratum, S_h, you can assign the variable as 26 or 20 according to the province type. This does not need to be a fixed value across all strata; it is a strata-level information.
