Two days ago, my semi-d house was almost broke in...
they cut my side fence (green wire type), open my side window (at my second room) & half way cut open my grill.
I was away that night around 8-9.30 for buka puasa (when its raining)..
i got back from dinner without knowing what happen.. just realise it at 12.00 p.m when i wondering why my window was open.. & surprised when looking at the grill.. then i know what had happen..
Immediately call the police & 10 minutes later they arrive.. i think they already left when i got back from dinner.. nothin lost just that quite beware nowdays of what happened..
by the way there's an empty land beside my house with bushes & stuff..

My terraced house had also been broken into sometime in March & since then I have taken some precautions:
1. Install extra lightings at the back & front of the house, you know those that lights up whenever movements are detected.
2. When nobody's in, may I suggest you switch on your radio to make your house looked occupied. I also make it a point to leave one light on inside the house with the radio on when we are sleeping.
3. Join forces with your neighbours to have a neighbourhood watch area on the lookout for suspicious characters. It’s quite popular here in my hometown - they have this tagline 'If I don't call the police, my neighbours will'
4. You might consider replacing your fencing with a high brick wall as a deterrent.
5. The empty land beside your house is a problem. Whoever owns it should have the grass cut regularly not only to evade suspicious characters but also keep out snakes.
Edit: if you're not keen to invest in house alarm, then keep your car keys/alarms near you when sleeping. Activate them if you suspect a break-in. If you have 2 or 3 cars even better, activate them all at the same time. Hehehe! If that doesn't scare them away, then nothing will.

CCTV and alarm system is the best avaiable so far, you can link it into internet and view it on your 3G phone anytime anywhere
You may want to form a residence association and hire security guards to patrol every hour and put a big signboard 'this area patrolled by security guards 24 hours'.
It works at my place, but the patrolling only happen at nights
-edit-
azayi, rumah semiD can afford buying, security/alarm system cannot afford ah?

1. Call the security alarm system company and use their services
2. Install CCTV camera, i think they are going pretty cheap nowadays otherwise, install the camera for show only. Nobody knows its working or otherwise.
3. Make friends with 2 rotweilers.

I guess suggesting getting a dog isn't a good option?
(sorry ya but dogs are really good creatures for security. if it weren't for them my ol'neigbhorhood got more break-ins.)
Coz. other thn that security alarm & better fencing walls around the house; can't think of others.
Except if your jiran tetangga willing to look out for you.
There's also some lights that will auto-switch on according to timer.

Sounds like you need to invest in a home alarm system, to me. PS: That's a very strange avatar you have!Other than the Versace logo, what else is that on the right??

a high concrete fence isn't foolproof, but if anyone wants to go across it will have to climb it instead of cutting it.
An alarm system would be good. Most residential home thief would be scare away.

Install a heavier fence and a home burglar alarm system.
