  "account": "Travel agency Blue Miracle Inspiration has been suspended by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) from conducting travel agent activities for up to six months. This suspension was imposed on November 6, 2025, as the company failed to submit two required documents within six months of its financial year closing. According to STB, these documents include an audited statement of accounts and an annual business profile return. The suspension will remain in effect until the company submits the necessary paperwork, or until the six-month period expires, whichever occurs first. During this time, Blue Miracle Inspiration must continue to fulfill its existing obligations to customers but is prohibited from accepting new travel bookings. The company is permitted to maintain its current operations, including its website and social media accounts, but must cease new business activities. The updated list of licensed travel agents can be found on the STB's trust portal at trust.stb.gov.sg. Individuals seeking information regarding licensing inquiries can reach out to STB via email at stb_ta@stb.gov.sg. The company has a registered address at 10 Winstedt Road, Singapore, and its website remains accessible, albeit with limited information. Its social media profiles, including Instagram and Facebook, are still public, though their last posts were made in May 2025 and January 2025, respectively.",
