Check the voltage rating
Japan uses 100 V and Palau uses 120 V, but similar nominal voltages do not guarantee compatibility. Check that your device's input rating covers the destination supply.

The destination may use a different frequency (60 → 50/60 Hz). Check your device's input rating for the local frequency; a plug adapter does not change it.

Plugbert's note on Japan
Japan is split in two: eastern Japan (Tokyo) runs at 50 Hz and western Japan (Osaka) at 60 Hz. A grounded three-prong plug needs a suitable grounded connection; do not remove the ground pin or assume a two-pin adapter provides earth.
