"Japanese Standard Time" is not a valid time zone name in this context -- it really requires a zone ID. Try "Asia/Tokyo".

You can find out the valid entries like this:

use AppleScript version "2.4" -- Yosemite (10.10) or later
use framework "Foundation"
use scripting additions

current application's NSTimeZone's knownTimeZoneNames() as list
