From, “In Myanmar, Government Reforms Win Over Some Skeptics,” by The New York Times, published 11/29/11:
“The waves of change sweeping Myanmar are trickling down to the broken sidewalks and potholed streets of this dilapidated city.
"Automated teller machines, ubiquitous in the world’s major cities but absent here during years of economic stagnation, are now being installed at a handful of banks."
Your challenge is to substitute one-word synonyms for the highlighted words.
Dilapidated: in a state of disrepair or ruin usually as a result of neglect or age
Ubiquitous: present, appearing or found everywhere
