Sadly that's pretty much standard for expats at non-union third world airlines.

The controller knows this and tries to get SEY054 to not report the incident.

Language skills seem fine to me. It's normal to have several accents with international crews and destinations. However, as others have pointed out, we don't know if Emirates could hear the controller very well, he asked to have a couple of transmissions repeated.
