I was going to use StealthVPN, but StealthVPN requires Astill software to run. How do I configure in Qubes to provide networking for virtual machines. Although openvpn is the best choice, openvpn is not available in my region.

You can find a documentation to setup a VPN gateway here:
How To make a VPN Gateway in Qubes

Although setting up a VPN connection is not by itself Qubes specific, Qubes includes a number of tools that can make the client-side setup of your VPN more versatile and secure. This document is a Qubes-specific outline for choosing the type of VM to use, and shows how to prepare a ProxyVM for either NetworkManager or a set of fail-safe VPN scripts.
Please refer to your guest OS and VPN service documentation when considering the specific steps and parameters for your connection(s); The relevant documentation for the Qubes default guest OS (Fedora) is [Establishing a VPN Connection.](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/23/html/Networking_Guide/sec-Establishing_a_VPN_Connection.html)
### NetVM
The simplest case is to set up a VPN connection using the NetworkManager service inside your NetVM. Because the NetworkManager service is already started, you are ready to set up your VPN connection. However this has some disadvantages:
- You have to place (and probably save) your VPN credentials inside the NetVM, which is directly connected to the outside world
- All your AppVMs which are connected to the NetVM will be connected to the VPN (by default)

regarding StealthVPN:
Looks like you have to download their proprietary client here:

My guess would be to create a test VM, install their client, configure it, and try a second VM to use the first one as a gateway.
